Asbestos help in Westcombe Park
How asbestos removal works in Westcombe Park
Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll tell you if your job in Westcombe Park falls into that category. Whether it’s floor tiles before a new floor and loft water tanks, we cover floor tiles, water tanks and gutters and downpipes.
In areas like Westcombe Park, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

What it might be made of
Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
Which option is right?
HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and disposal still has to be done properly. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Afterwards
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it in advance.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Share any survey or test results
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Things not to do
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Westcombe Park: your questions answered
Do you cover Westcombe Park and the area around Westcombe Park station?
Yes, we cover Westcombe Park, including the streets around Westcombe Park station.
Can you work in Westcombe Park with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the method depends on what the material is.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
