Asbestos removal near Victoria
After we’ve finished in Victoria
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
To avoid problems in future:
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell us about any previous survey
Avoid these
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Asbestos removal for Victoria properties
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, and you get the waste paperwork. Typical jobs include cement water tanks in lofts and Artex before plastering, including cement roof sheets, flue pipes and textured coatings.
In London neighbourhoods like Victoria, garages and outbuildings are often reached through the house or a rear 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.

Choosing the right option
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Our quotes are clear about VAT.

Victoria properties and asbestos removal
Victoria is about 1 mile south of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Properties in Victoria range from older houses to newer estates and commercial buildings, and anything from before 2000 may contain asbestos. Victoria is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we work.
In older buildings across Victoria, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan. For properties on main roads such as the A202 and A302, we plan parking and loading in advance.
We cover removal jobs across SW1V, SW1P and SW1X. Local streets include Eaton Lane, Gerald Road and Wilton Road; we cover every one. Victoria is on the A202 and A302, which makes it simple to get to. For properties just outside Victoria, we cover Belgravia (1 mile north-west), Pimlico (1 mile south-east), Westminster (1 mile north-east), Millbank (1 mile north-east) and Brompton (1 mile west). We also cover nearby towns such as Shoreditch (4 miles north-east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (4 miles north-east), Whitechapel (4 miles north-east), Hampstead (4 miles north) and Ruislip (13 miles north-west).
As a London location, Victoria is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading need planning: let us know about parking and access when you get in touch.

Typical removal jobs in Victoria
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Old cold water tanks
- Asbestos found during building work
- Textured coatings
- Garage roofs and whole garages
At a school such as St Peter's Eaton Square CofE Primary School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Other services in Victoria
Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Victoria must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Victoria: your questions answered
Could my house in Victoria contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work in Victoria despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is usually needed.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically are not licensed.
Materials, one by one
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.
