Your questions about asbestos removal in St Pancras
Do you work near London Kings Cross station?
Yes. London Kings Cross station is about 0.5 miles north-west of St Pancras, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in St Pancras homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
What does removal cost?
There is no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
Can asbestos be left in place?
It doesn’t always have to come out: material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Where does the asbestos go?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
What’s included, and what is not

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Materials, one by one
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Responsibilities for owners
If you manage or own a block in St Pancras, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
If your business premises in St Pancras were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Typical removal jobs in St Pancras
Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary.
These are some of the things we deal with in St Pancras:
- Garage roof sheets
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Textured coatings
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
In older properties in St Pancras, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we test before we plan.
