Asbestos in Croxley Green
Croxley Green expanded around the Metropolitan line station in the 1920s and 1930s, giving the village a large stock of bay-fronted semis and detached houses on the New Road and Baldwins Lane estates, with post-war closes filling in afterwards. Those interwar houses almost universally have detached or linked garages with corrugated cement roofs, and their kitchens and bathrooms were modernised through the 1960s and 1970s when Artex, floor tiles and insulating board were standard. The former paper mill site and the light-industrial units by the canal add commercial survey work. Loft conversions and rear extensions on the semis are the single most common trigger for a refurbishment survey here.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Croxley Green properties safe the right way — identified, proven in the lab, and either contained or removed with paperwork that satisfies lenders, buyers and the HSE.

Asbestos Removal in Croxley Green: FAQs
We're converting the loft on a 1930s Croxley Green semi — what should we check first?
Have a refurbishment and demolition survey done on the areas being opened up, because water tanks, old flue pipes, insulating board around chimney breasts and Artex ceilings all sit in that zone. It is intrusive so it costs more than a £200 to £300 management survey, but it protects the builder and satisfies CAR 2012. If insulating board is found, removal is licensed work and must be notified to the HSE.
How much to remove the asbestos garage roof on my Croxley Green house?
A typical single garage roof in corrugated asbestos cement is around £380 to £500, and a large double garage or one with awkward access can reach £800. That covers controlled removal, wrapping, and disposal at a licensed site with a waste consignment note. Cement sheeting is non-licensed work, so no HSE notification is needed, but it still must be removed without breaking the sheets.
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.
