Asbestos removal and waste collections in Merton and Tooting

Here at Goodbye Asbestos, we apply a common sense and cost-effective approach to asbestos removal in Merton, Tooting and the nearby areas.

What is asbestos? Asbestos is a naturally-occurring fibre that was mined and used in the manufacture of building materials since the 1950s. It was known as the miracle mineral because of its heat and insulation properties and its versatility. It was widely mixed with other materials, such as cement, until it was banned in 1999. If you live in a building that was built before then, then it is likely that some parts of the building contain asbestos in some form.

Asbestos is now recognised as a highly dangerous material and exposure to asbestos fibres are known to causes highly serious diseases, including lung cancer and asbestosis. These diseases take a long time to develop, often decades, so it is often too late to do anything about your exposure to asbestos fibres.

Once asbestos has been identified on your premises and should you need it removed, it is essential that this work is done by a qualified specialist. Here at Goodbye Asbestos, we are accredited to the UKATA and have over 20 years’ experience handling and disposing of this dangerous substance. We work in strict accordance to health and safety guidelines and always use specialist equipment, including safety suits and masks.

• Dismantling and removing asbestos garages, shed, barns and other outbuildings
• Collection of asbestos sheets when they have been removed by another tradesperson
• Complete removal of asbestos from demolition sites

Free, no-obligation quotations for all asbestos testing and surveys in Merton

Are you worried about asbestos? Whether you require a bulk sampling on a regular basis or a one-off sample service, we will be happy to assist. If you are simply worried about one particular product or area within a home containing asbestos and before commissioning a larger asbestos survey, we can take a sample of the suspect material and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for expert analysis and identification. We will then quickly be able to advise you whether asbestos is present or not, then can organise a full asbestos survey if necessary.

As asbestos specialists we can also carry out a range of asbestos surveys. Under current legislation, there is a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises. In order to manage asbestos, a survey is often required.

We can complete:

• Asbestos Management Surveys (formerly known as Type 1 and Type 2)
• Refurbishment or Demolition Surveys
