When asbestos is a concern in your home, you need a team you can completely trust. We’re dedicated to giving you a safe, reliable, and straightforward service from the moment you get in touch. We carry full Public Liability Insurance and complete all work strictly following HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012). Our team holds a valid Waste Carriers Licence, so you can be sure all asbestos waste is handled and disposed of legally and responsibly. Our technicians are highly trained, with years of hands-on experience dealing with asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in all sorts of properties, just like yours. We give you clear, detailed quotes with no surprises, so you know exactly what’s involved before we begin.

Knowing if asbestos is present, what type it is, and its condition is the essential first step. Our thorough surveys give you the information you need to manage any risks. If your home was built or refurbished before the year 2000, there's a good chance it might contain asbestos, as it was a very common building material for decades. We offer:

  • Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: An important check before you buy a property. This helps identify any hidden asbestos costs or safety worries before you commit.
  • Refurbishment Surveys: If you're planning any major home improvements, a refurbishment survey is often needed to locate asbestos that could be disturbed.
  • Asbestos Testing: If you’ve spotted something you think might be asbestos, don't touch it. Our team can safely take a small sample and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory. You'll then get a definite result and certificate. We frequently test materials such as textured coatings (like Artex), asbestos cement (often found on garage roofs or soffits), and vinyl floor tiles.

Our main service is the safe removal of non-licensed asbestos from homes across St Albans. Our trained team follows strict procedures to set up a controlled area, carefully remove the materials, and leave your property clean and safe. While it’s not strictly illegal for a homeowner to remove very small amounts of non-licensed asbestos cement themselves, it’s extremely risky if not done correctly. Without the right training, safety equipment (like PPE and RPE), and proper disposal methods, you risk exposing yourself and others to dangerous fibres. We always recommend using professionals for your safety. We specialise in removing:

Beyond Removal: Asbestos Collection, Encapsulation & Reinstatement in St Albans

We offer more than just removal. If you’ve already had asbestos carefully dismantled from your property, we provide a professional collection service. We make sure it's correctly wrapped and transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility, giving you all the necessary legal paperwork (Hazardous Waste Consignment Note) for your records. Sometimes, if the asbestos is in good condition, we can encapsulate it instead of removing it. This involves sealing or enclosing the material to prevent fibre release, which can be a very cost-effective and safe solution. After any removal, we also offer a full reinstatement service, replacing roofs, ceilings, flooring, and walls to get your space back to normal and looking great.

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.
