Asbestos removal near White City
Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Asbestos removal in White City
If your builder has found suspect material in White City, work should stop there and people kept out. We’ll identify it and plan what happens next. People often contact us about Artex ceilings before renovation and debris left from a previous job, including gutters and downpipes, water tanks and floor tiles.
In London neighbourhoods like White City, garages and outbuildings are often reached through the house or a rear lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Removal jobs in White City

What we deal with in White City
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Cement flues and gutters
- Old waste on site
- Artex ceilings before renovation
For non-domestic buildings like Ark Swift Primary Academy, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

White City: your questions answered
Do you work in White City despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.
Is asbestos common in White City homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Good to know
So you know what to expect:
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor

Insulating board and lagging
That work must be done by a contractor holding an HSE licence, with notification 14 days ahead.
Water tanks and flues
Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.
How it works
Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, ready to go to a permitted site. We will tell you when we’ve finished and what you’ll receive afterwards. In winter, the light goes in White City by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
