How asbestos removal works in Round Street
You don’t always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s finds during refurbishment and Artex before plastering, we cover water tanks, flue pipes and cement soffits and more.
Rural removal near Round Street can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Common questions in Round Street
Is asbestos common in Round Street homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work near Sole Street station?
Yes, we cover Round Street and the area towards Sole Street station, about 0.6 miles south.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Can asbestos be left in place?
In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

How we price asbestos removal
These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos removal:
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Access to the area
- What the material is and its state
Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
Sending photos
The most useful photos are:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- An idea of size
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- An overall view
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
What it might be made of
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Your options compared
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

Read how we quote and published price ranges.
After the job
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- File the consignment note
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Don’ts
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Typical removal jobs in Round Street
Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
These come up again and again:
- Asbestos found during building work
- Textured coatings
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
Landlords near Sole Street station often time removal for when a property is empty.
What your quote should include
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
Responsibilities for owners
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
