How asbestos removal works in Seven Kings
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Typical materials include floor tiles, cement roof sheets and textured coatings, and typical jobs are outbuildings with cement roofs and garage roofs and whole garages.
In London neighbourhoods like Seven Kings, garages and outbuildings are often reached through the house or a rear lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
FAQs for Seven Kings
Do you work in Seven Kings despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Can you quote from photos?

Materials, one by one
Insulating board and lagging
