Asbestos in Mill Hill
Mill Hill is one of Barnet's lowest-density suburbs, with large detached and substantial semi-detached houses on generous plots from the 1920s through the 1960s, plus older village property along The Ridgeway. The plots are what shape the asbestos picture: detached garages, workshops, greenhouses, stables and garden stores with corrugated asbestos cement roofs and wall sheets are widespread, and many are now brittle after sixty years of weathering. Inside, larger houses of that era often have AIB behind boilers and around airing cupboards, asbestos cement flues and bitumen-backed floor tiles in utility rooms. Redevelopment and rebuild schemes here almost always need a refurbishment and demolition survey.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Mill Hill 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 Surveys in Mill Hill: FAQs
I have an old asbestos garage and a workshop roof to clear in Mill Hill — how is that priced?
Asbestos cement roofs are priced by area, access and condition rather than per building, so a standard single garage roof usually falls between £380 and £800 and a second outbuilding on the same visit costs less than it would alone. Getting both done in one mobilisation is the cheapest route because you pay once for setup, waste consignment and the licensed tip. Bring us the sizes and a photo and we can price it without a site visit in most cases.
We are demolishing a 1960s house on The Ridgeway — what survey is required?
A refurbishment and demolition survey is required before demolition, and it is fully intrusive: floors, linings, ceilings and the roof structure are opened up so nothing is left unidentified. It costs considerably more than the £200 to £300 typical of a management survey because of the destructive access and the number of samples. The report then feeds the demolition contractor's plan of work, and any licensed items such as AIB or sprayed coating must be stripped by a licensed contractor under HSE notification first.
Which asbestos survey do I actually need?
If the building is staying as-is, a management survey satisfies your legal duty to manage. If you are refurbishing or demolishing any part of it, the law requires the more intrusive refurbishment & demolition survey before work begins. We will confirm the right one free of charge.
How long does an asbestos survey take?
A domestic management survey is often done in a single morning. Larger commercial premises or intrusive refurbishment surveys take longer, but we return UKAS-analysed results and the full report typically within 48 hours of the site visit.
