When it comes to asbestos in your home, you need a team you can absolutely rely on. We are dedicated to offering a service that is safe, reliable, and entirely transparent from our first conversation to the completion of the job.

  • Completely Insured & Compliant: We hold comprehensive Public Liability Insurance. All our work strictly follows HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012), meaning you get a service that is both safe and legal.
  • Certified & Responsible: We hold a valid Waste Carriers Licence. This ensures all asbestos waste from your property is handled and disposed of correctly and responsibly, providing you with all the necessary paperwork.
  • Local & Highly Experienced Team: Our technicians are fully trained and have many years of hands-on experience identifying, managing, and removing asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) from a wide range of domestic properties, including many in the Chorleywood area.
  • Clear, Honest Pricing: We give you clear, detailed quotes without any hidden fees. You will know exactly what the job involves and the cost before we even begin.
  • Comprehensive Home Service: From the first inspection and testing right through to safe removal, responsible disposal, and even reinstatement work, we handle the entire process for you.
  • Dedicated Domestic Asbestos Experts: We have the skills and equipment to safely manage projects of any size, from a single asbestos sheet in a garden shed to a full survey of your entire home.

Knowing whether asbestos is present in your home, its type, and its condition is the crucial first step. Our thorough surveys give you the information needed to manage any risk effectively.

  • Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: An essential check before buying a property in Chorleywood. This helps identify any hidden asbestos costs or potential safety risks before you commit.
  • Management Surveys: While primarily for non-domestic properties, understanding the presence of asbestos in your home helps with future renovation plans or if you are considering selling.
  • Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: If you are planning any significant building work, refurbishment, or demolition, this legally required, intrusive survey must be done first.
  • Asbestos Testing and Laboratory Analysis: If you suspect a material in your home might contain asbestos, it is vital not to disturb it. Our team can safely take a sample and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. We give you a definitive result and a certificate. We commonly test materials such as textured coatings (Artex) on ceilings and walls, asbestos cement (often found in garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, and gutters), old vinyl floor tiles, and pipe insulation. If your property was built or renovated before the year 2000, there is a good chance it could contain asbestos, as it was a very common building material for decades. Asbestos can be tricky to spot, as it was used in over 3,000 products, so professional testing is the only way to be certain.

Our main service involves the safe removal of non-licensed asbestos from all types of domestic properties. Our highly trained team follows strict procedures to contain the work area, carefully remove the materials, and leave your property clean and safe. While it is not illegal for a homeowner to remove very small amounts of non-licensed asbestos cement, we strongly advise against it. Without the correct training, specialist equipment (like personal protective equipment and respiratory protective equipment), and proper disposal methods, you risk exposing yourself and others to dangerous fibres. We always recommend using a professional team like ours. "Non-licensed" asbestos refers to lower-risk materials, such as asbestos cement, floor tiles, and textured coatings. These materials are still hazardous and must be handled by trained professionals.
We specialise in safely removing asbestos from:

  • Garage & Sheds: Many older garage and shed roofs, or wall panels, are made of asbestos cement.
  • Outbuildings & Extensions: Asbestos can be found in various components.
  • Soffits and Fascias: Common in older homes.
  • Floor Tiles: Particularly vinyl floor tiles and their backing.
  • Textured Ceilings & Walls: Often known as Artex.
  • Old Cement Water Tanks: Found in lofts or outhouses.

PROTECTING YOUR HOME

Complete Asbestos Management: From Collection to Reinstatement

Our commitment to your home goes beyond just removal. We offer a full range of services to manage asbestos safely and effectively.

  • Asbestos Collection and Disposal: If you have asbestos that you have already safely removed or dismantled (though we always advise professional removal), we offer a professional collection service. We make sure it is correctly wrapped and transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility, giving you all the necessary legal paperwork (Hazardous Waste Consignment Note) for your records.
  • Asbestos Encapsulation and Reinstatement: In certain situations, if the asbestos is in good condition, removing it may not be the best solution. Encapsulation involves sealing or enclosing the material to prevent fibre release, which can be a very cost-effective and safe management option. After any removal, we also offer a full reinstatement service, replacing roofs, ceilings, flooring, and walls to get your space back to normal, looking just as it should.

Fantastic service. We had some old asbestos floor tiles that needed removing. The team was fast, friendly, and very knowledgeable. They handled all the waste disposal and provided the consignment note as promised. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
