Why people call us in Winchmore Hill
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Buckinghamshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Loft water tanks
- Textured coatings
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Old waste on site
Older buildings in Winchmore Hill, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.

- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- Whether VAT is included
- How the work will be done, and the controls used

Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Bitumen and felt
Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, which is normally well bound.
Which option is right?
DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Winchmore Hill
Do you cover Winchmore Hill from London?
We cover Winchmore Hill, about 26 miles from central London.
Could my house in Winchmore Hill contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Winchmore Hill may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Looking after things afterwards
File the waste paperwork safely: it proves legal disposal.
A few practical points:
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Share any survey or test results
What to avoid
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
