Asbestos was a popular building material before the year 2000, commonly used in floor tiles, especially vinyl or thermoplastic varieties, and often with an asbestos paper backing. These tiles can look perfectly harmless and were used in a wide range of properties, from residential homes to offices and schools across London. While intact asbestos floor tiles generally don't pose an immediate risk, disturbing them – through drilling, sanding, or simply breaking them during renovation – can release dangerous asbestos fibres into the air. Identifying these materials can be tricky, as they often blend in. If you suspect your floor tiles contain asbestos, it's crucial not to disturb them. Our team can help you detect their presence and advise on the safest next steps.

Our core service involves the safe removal of non-licensed asbestos, including floor tiles, from all types of properties. Our trained team follows strict procedures to make sure your property is left clean and safe:

  1. Initial Assessment & Testing: We start by visiting your property to assess the suspected asbestos floor tiles. We can take samples, sending them to a UKAS-accredited laboratory to confirm the presence of asbestos.
  2. Strategic Planning: Once confirmed, we create a detailed plan for safe removal, considering the specific layout and usage of your London property to minimise any disruption.
  3. Containment & Preparation: Before any work begins, we carefully seal off the work area. This involves using specialist barriers and negative pressure units to prevent any asbestos fibres from spreading to other parts of your property.
  4. Careful Removal: Our technicians, equipped with full personal protective equipment (PPE) and respiratory protective equipment (RPE), meticulously remove the asbestos floor tiles. We use wet stripping methods where possible to reduce dust and ensure all materials are safely removed.
  5. Thorough Cleaning & Clearance: After removal, we conduct a comprehensive clean-up, using specialist HEPA vacuum cleaners to remove any remaining fibres. An independent analyst can then carry out an air test to confirm the area is safe for reoccupation.
  6. Responsible Disposal: All removed asbestos materials are double-bagged and transported in sealed containers to a licensed hazardous waste facility. We provide you with the necessary Hazardous Waste Consignment Notes for your records.

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.
