Asbestos removal near Tottenham

Every removal job in Tottenham is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. From floor tiles before a new floor and old waste on site, we cover flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings and more.

In places like Tottenham, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, which affects how the waste is carried out. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

Should you do it yourself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

After we have finished in Tottenham

Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, so future trades know about it.

Staying safe afterwards:

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards

Avoid these

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.

How we price asbestos removal

We base our quote on:

  • Material and condition
  • The size of the job
  • Disposal costs
  • Travel and parking

The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

Limits to be aware of

To be clear about the scope:

  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
  • Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

Choosing the right option

Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

What you get

  • Reports and results you can share
  • Clear advice on your options
  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Houses, flats and business premises

Responsibilities for owners

If you run a business from older premises in Tottenham, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

FAQs for Tottenham

Do you work in Tottenham despite London parking restrictions?

Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do older homes in Tottenham have asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Can asbestos be left in place?

Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Does weather affect the work?

That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

Can you help with a flat?

We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
