Asbestos removal for Stroud Green

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
About our asbestos removal in Stroud Green
You do not always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we’ll tell you honestly when that is the case. From floor tiles before a new floor and materials found mid-project, we cover textured coatings, flue pipes and floor tiles and more.
In Stroud Green, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Stroud Green
Can you work in Stroud Green 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.
Could my house in Stroud Green contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Stroud Green may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
How we price asbestos removal
The biggest factors in the price are:
- The survey scope
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Access to the area
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Photos that help

Which option is right?
Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

- Legal disposal, with paperwork

What it might be made of
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
Bitumen and felt
Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is normally well bound.
Afterwards
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it in advance.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Send photos of the material and the access
Things not to do
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
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.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
