Asbestos Removal in Bedfont
For safe, compliant asbestos removal in Bedfont, our HSE-licensed and non-licensed teams handle everything from a single garage roof to a full strip-out across West London.
Asbestos in Bedfont
Bedfont sits on the northern fringe of Heathrow and its housing is mostly 1930s ribbon development along the Staines Road plus substantial post-war estate building in East and West Bedfont. That combination puts asbestos cement in garage and outbuilding roofs across the older stock and asbestos insulating board in the 1950s and 1960s houses and low-rise flats. The airport's cargo and logistics belt brings a large stock of mid-century warehouses, hangars and workshops with cement sheet roofing and older plant room lagging. Landlords converting family houses into shared accommodation for airport workers regularly disturb artex and floor tiles during refits.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Bedfont properties safe the right way — identified, proven in the lab, and either contained or removed with paperwork that satisfies lenders, buyers and the HSE.

Enclose
Work areas are sealed in controlled enclosures under negative pressure so no fibre escapes.

Clear
An independent analyst runs the 4-stage clearance and issues the certificate of reoccupation. Waste leaves on consignment notes.
Asbestos Removal in Bedfont: FAQs
I run a small unit near the Heathrow cargo area — what survey do I need?
For day-to-day occupation you need a management survey to satisfy the duty to manage in Regulation 4 of CAR 2012, generally £200 to £300 for a small unit, supported by an asbestos register and a written management plan. If you are fitting out, racking, or altering the building, that must be upgraded to a refurbishment and demolition survey covering the work area, which is intrusive and priced higher.
Can I take my old asbestos shed roof to the tip myself in Bedfont?
Some local authority household waste sites will take small quantities of bonded asbestos cement from householders if it is double-wrapped and booked in advance, but they refuse loose or damaged material and refuse trade waste outright. Given the handling risk, most people opt for a contractor removal, which for a typical shed or garage roof runs about £380 to £800 including wrapping, transport and disposal at a licensed facility with a consignment note.
Do I need a licensed contractor to remove asbestos?
It depends on the material. High-risk items like pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and asbestos insulating board need an HSE-licensed contractor. Lower-risk items such as cement sheets and floor tiles can be removed under non-licensed controls. We are licensed for both and will tell you which applies.
Can I stay in the property during removal?
For small non-licensed jobs, often yes, with the work area sealed off. For licensed removal inside the home we usually recommend vacating the affected zone until the clearance certificate is issued. We plan the safest sequence around you.
