Asbestos Removal in Hampton
For safe, compliant asbestos removal in Hampton, our HSE-licensed and non-licensed teams handle everything from a single garage roof to a full strip-out across South West London.
Asbestos in Hampton
Hampton runs from the riverside and Hampton Court fringe through a broad belt of 1930s semis and short terraces built out around Hampton and Hampton Hill stations, with pockets of post-war infill and low-rise flats. The interwar housing is textbook asbestos-cement territory — garage roofs, coal bunkers, greenhouse and shed roofs, soffits, flues and loft water tanks — while the post-war blocks add insulating board around services and heaters. Riverside properties with basements and outbuildings often have older plant and pipework where lagging may survive. Most local work is single-item removal on garages and outbuildings rather than whole-house programmes.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Hampton properties safe the right way — identified, proven in the lab, and either contained or removed with paperwork that satisfies lenders, buyers and the HSE.

Four steps to certainty
Plan
We produce a plan of work (or notify the HSE for licensed jobs), method statement and risk assessment specific to your site.
Enclose
Work areas are sealed in controlled enclosures under negative pressure so no fibre escapes.
Remove
Operatives in full RPE strip and double-bag material, decontaminating as they go.
Clear
An independent analyst runs the 4-stage clearance and issues the certificate of reoccupation. Waste leaves on consignment notes.
Asbestos Removal in Hampton: FAQs
What does it cost to remove an asbestos garage roof in Hampton?
For bonded asbestos cement sheeting on a typical domestic garage, expect roughly £380 to £800 depending on the number of sheets, roof height and access down a shared drive. This is non-licensed work under CAR 2012, so it does not need an HSE-licensed contractor, but sheets should be removed whole and damped rather than broken, and disposal must go to a licensed site with a consignment note you keep.
Is pipe lagging in my old Hampton cellar something I can strip out myself?
No. Thermal insulation on pipes and boilers is among the most hazardous asbestos products and its removal is licensed work under CAR 2012 — it can only be done by an HSE-licensed contractor, and the job must be notified to the HSE 14 days in advance. The first step is identification, usually a sample at £50 to £80, after which we can scope a licensed removal with an enclosure and air clearance.
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.
