Duty holders and landlords in Seven Dials
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Asbestos removal in Seven Dials
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. From old floor tiles and black adhesive and loft water tanks, we cover water tanks, floor tiles and cement soffits.
In Seven Dials, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Materials, one by one
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
Insulating board and lagging
That work must be done by a contractor holding an HSE licence, with notification 14 days ahead.
What happens next
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
Keeping things safe:
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Let us know where we can park
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Things not to do
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Seven Dials questions
Is asbestos common in Seven Dials homes?
If your home in Seven Dials was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you work in Seven Dials with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you cover Seven Dials?
Yes, we do: Seven Dials is within the area we cover in Greater London. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Where does the asbestos go?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Do I need to move out?
It depends on the job: outdoor jobs don’t usually affect you. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
