Asbestos removal in Walliswood

Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, cement soffits and water tanks, and people normally contact us about old cold water tanks and broken sheets in gardens.

Rural removal near Walliswood can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

More about this service

Should you do it yourself?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

Looking after things afterwards

Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it in advance.

Keeping things safe:

Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
Send photos of the material and the access
Let us know where we can park

What to avoid

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Prices and what affects them

What drives the price:

The type of material and its condition
How easy it is to reach
Travel and parking
The number of samples or the size of the building

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

What to photograph

The most useful photos are:

A close-up from a safe distance
Where we could park
Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

Your questions about asbestos removal in Walliswood

How far is Walliswood from London?

We cover Walliswood, about 29 miles from central London.

Do older homes in Walliswood have asbestos?

If your home in Walliswood was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?

It varies: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.

When can you start?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

Can asbestos be left in place?

Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.

Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?

If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The right method depends on what the material is.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.

Options to consider in Walliswood

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. The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
