We work with businesses, developers and property managers to remove asbestos from offices, shops and commercial buildings. Every project is completed safely, legally and with minimal impact on operations.
We deliver specialist asbestos removal for factories, warehouses and large industrial sites. Our team raises the standard for safety, planning and efficiency, managing complex projects with precision.
Commonly used for fire protection, this material is often found in older soffits, partition walls and boiler cupboards throughout pre-1999 properties.
Frequently used in roofing sheets, garage panels and external cladding, it remains one of the most widespread asbestos products still present across the UK.
Often applied to older heating and water systems, this type of insulation is usually hidden behind boxing, in basements or within loft spaces.
Still present beneath many kitchens, hallways and commercial floors, these durable tiles and adhesives were widely installed throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s.
Popular as a decorative finish on ceilings and walls, this textured coating was used for decades and is still commonly found during refurbishments.
Found in corrugated roofing sheets, fascia boards and outbuildings, these materials were widely used for weather protection and structural durability.
Often used in kitchens and bathrooms, older vinyl sheeting can contain asbestos in the backing layer, especially in homes built before the late 1990s.
Installed around heaters, ducts and fire-protected areas, these panels were chosen for their heat resistance and are regularly uncovered during renovation work.
Found in older household items like ironing boards, heat-resistant mats and vintage plant pots, these rarer products are occasionally uncovered.
We’ve supported projects of every scale, working across more than 100 locations and completing hundreds of safe, compliant removals and remediation works. Our highly trained team brings deep technical knowledge and a commitment to doing things properly, giving clients confidence at every stage of the process.

Team industry experience
When you get in touch, our team guides you through every stage of the asbestos removal journey. We begin by discussing your concerns, reviewing any photos or reports you may have, and arranging a site visit at a time that suits you.
Whether you’re managing a home project or overseeing a large commercial site, it’s normal to have questions about asbestos and how the removal process works. These FAQs explain everything you need to know—from costs and timescales to safety procedures and certificates—so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
Asbestos is a building material used in homes and other buildings during the mid-twentieth century, known for its heat resistance, strength and extreme durability. The material is essentially sharp, thin mineral fibres mixed with cement. Unfortunately, the material can release these dangerous fibre particles into the atmosphere when disturbed, leading to lung cancer and asbestos-specific conditions, like asbestosis and mesothelioma.
Asbestos removal involves finding and removing asbestos on a property so the owner and users can be safe and comply with regulations. Work starts with an evaluation to determine the locations of asbestos in the building before operators seal off the affected area to prevent fibre release and begin carefully removing materials. Asbestos-containing products go into special asbestos UN waste sacks for safe disposal according to government guidelines.
Removing asbestos brings numerous benefits, including:
-Eliminating the risks of health conditions associated with asbestos exposure
-Greater compliance with regulations and legal standards
-Reducing the risk of fines or legal cases relating to asbestos exposure
-Improving the value of the property
-Allowing businesses to demonstrate a commitment to responsibility and safety

How much asbestos removal costs depends on:
-The size of the job (industrial and commercial projects tend to have higher quotes than smaller residential ones)
-The location of the asbestos (e.g. in the garage, roof, or flooring) -The challenges involved in the removal (i.e. how hard it is to get to)
-Each project is unique so we provide estimates before we begin work. If we give you a free quote, you are under no obligation to use our services and can go with someone else.
We follow a strict, step-by-step asbestos removal process to keep you safe and ensure full compliance with all regulations.
-Identification: First, we locate and assess the presence of asbestos-containing materials.
-Containment: The affected area is sealed off with specialized containment barriers to prevent harmful fibres from becoming airborne and spreading.
-Protective Measures: All personnel wear full-body protective gear to eliminate any risk of exposure during the removal process.
-Air Monitoring: Throughout the operation, we continuously monitor the air quality around the containment zone to ensure no fibres escape into surrounding areas.
-Air Filtration: Inside the containment area, we use advanced filtration systems to remove airborne particles and ensure the space is safe once the work is complete.
-Safe Disposal: After removal, all asbestos materials are carefully packaged and transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility for proper disposal.
-Your safety is our top priority, and every step we take is designed to minimise risk and ensure a clean, compliant result.
In the UK, you are legally allowed to remove some types of asbestos yourself, such as asbestos cement sheets or certain textured coatings, as long as they are in good condition and do not require a licensed contractor. However, doing it yourself is risky. Disturbing asbestos can release invisible fibres that, when inhaled, can cause serious and often fatal diseases like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis—sometimes decades after exposure. Without the right training, equipment, and safety procedures, DIY removal can lead to contamination of your home, exposure to your family, and long-term health damage. Unless you are fully informed and equipped, it is far safer to use professional services.

-Licensed asbestos abatement and removal services

Licensed asbestos work covers higher-risk materials and tasks that require strict control measures, specialist equipment and HSE notification before any work can begin. This includes the removal of sprayed coatings such as limpet asbestos, any activity that may disturb pipe lagging, and work involving loose-fill insulation, millboard or other friable products. It also applies to the clean-up of fine or loose debris containing asbestos dust where the task is not low-intensity, short in duration or below the control limit. Work on asbestos insulation board (AIB) also falls under licensed regulations where a risk assessment shows the job will take longer or generate higher exposure. These materials require an HSE-licensed contractor, full enclosure systems and strict compliance with all safety legislation.
Unlicensed asbestos work involves lower-risk, bonded products that can be safely removed by trained professionals following standard control measures. This includes asbestos cement sheets, gutters and pipes, as well as asbestos ropes, woven materials and gaskets. Many common building items also fall into this category, such as thermoplastic and vinyl floor tiles, bitumen roof felt, damp-proofing coatings, mastics, shingles, and certain asbestos-containing papers and felts. Plastic paint coatings, PVC floors, panels, sealing compounds, electrical cables and rubber products can also typically be handled without a licence. Painting or repainting AIB in good condition may be included when the material is undisturbed. Although a licence is not required, all unlicensed work must still follow strict safety procedures to prevent fibre release and ensure full compliance.
