Asbestos was a popular additive in floor tiles, particularly vinyl and thermoplastic types, and their associated glues right up until it was banned. These tiles were valued for their durability and fire resistance. If your Cheshunt home or business was built or refurbished before 2000, there’s a strong possibility these materials are present. You might find them in kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, utility rooms, or underneath carpets.
They often come in various sizes and colours, sometimes with a slightly mottled or marbling form. While intact, they usually pose a low risk. However, if they become damaged, cracked, or are disturbed during renovation work, dangerous asbestos fibres can be released into the air. Do not try to remove them yourself. The only way to be absolutely certain if your floor tiles contain asbestos is through professional sampling and laboratory analysis. Our team can safely take a sample and send it for testing, giving you a definitive answer.

Your safety is our priority when it comes to removing asbestos floor tiles from your Cheshunt property. Our trained team follows a strict, controlled process to ensure the safe removal of these hazardous materials, leaving your property clean and secure.

  1. Initial Assessment & Sampling: We begin by inspecting the suspected floor tiles. If a definitive identification is needed, we'll take a small, safe sample and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. This confirms the presence and type of asbestos.
  2. Detailed Work Plan: Once confirmed, we develop a precise work plan tailored to your property, outlining the safest methods for removal, containment, and disposal, all in line with HSE guidelines.
  3. Controlled Removal: Our expert team sets up a controlled work area using specialist equipment to prevent fibre spread. We then carefully remove the asbestos-containing floor tiles and any associated adhesive.
  4. Air Monitoring (If Required): For larger or more complex removals, independent air monitoring can be arranged during and after the work to confirm the area is free from airborne fibres.
  5. Thorough Cleaning & Clearance: After removal, we meticulously clean the area using HEPA-filtered vacuum cleaners. We then carry out a visual inspection to ensure no debris remains.
  6. Secure Waste Disposal: All removed asbestos materials are double-bagged, sealed, and transported in a specially designated vehicle to a licensed hazardous waste facility. You receive a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note for your records.

Beyond Floor Tiles: Full Asbestos Management Services in Cheshunt

While our focus here is on asbestos floor tile removal, Southern Asbestos offers a full range of services to manage all non-licensed asbestos materials in your Cheshunt property. We provide:

  • Asbestos Surveys: Essential Home Buyer, Management, and Refurbishment/Demolition surveys to identify and assess any ACMs in your property, from garages to commercial buildings.
  • Asbestos Testing: If you find other materials you suspect might contain asbestos, such as Artex, cement panels, or pipe insulation, our team can safely take samples for laboratory analysis.
  • Asbestos Collection & Disposal: If you have already safely dismantled or removed small amounts of asbestos cement (e.g., from an old shed), we can arrange for professional collection and disposal, providing all necessary paperwork.
  • Asbestos Encapsulation & Reinstatement: In certain situations where asbestos is stable, encapsulation can be a safe and cost-effective solution. After any removal, we can also handle reinstatement works to restore your property.

Used Southern Asbestos to remove old Artex ceilings from our home in Maidenhead before a big renovation. The team was punctual, tidy, and took every precaution to ensure the area was safe. They left the site spotless. A very professional and trustworthy company.
