Asbestos removal for West Brompton properties
Removal is not always the answer. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we will tell you honestly when that is the case. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, flue pipes and cement soffits, and typical jobs are Artex ceilings before renovation and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes.
In London neighbourhoods like West Brompton, garages and outbuildings are often reached through the house or a rear lane, which affects how the waste is carried out. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Common questions in West Brompton
Do you work near West Brompton station?

Do you work in West Brompton despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
Do you work in West Brompton?
Yes. We cover West Brompton and the surrounding area as part of Greater London. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, and you receive the consignment note.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.
Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
