Asbestos health and safety London & Surrey

With so many old properties constructed or renovated pre-2000, asbestos could still remain in homes, outbuildings, public buildings and commercial premises. Asbestos was banned in the UK in 1999, but it can be found anywhere from roofs, ceiling tiles and Artex to pipe lagging, insulation and water tanks.

At Goodbye Asbestos, we’re a bespoke asbestos health and safety consultancy in London and Surrey. We work closely with property owners, duty holders and contractors to protect occupants and ensure legal compliance. From expert asbestos removal to ongoing management strategies, we’ll support you with implementing safe asbestos practices.

How can you reduce asbestos exposure risks?

The best strategy for reducing asbestos exposure risks for occupants and workers is via a multi-step approach of increasing awareness, accurate identification and taking action. Start with a professional asbestos survey of your property and its outbuildings. Have strict rules in place about activities that could disturb asbestos like drilling, cutting and sanding.

Always use an experienced asbestos consultancy who can help you with a bespoke asbestos management plan. At Goodbye Asbestos, we’ll confirm the presence of asbestos and advise on how to monitor it, updating your risk assessments when required.

  • "Very professional and friendly service. Initialy spoke with Andy who gave us a quote and date for the work to be done. Chris and Jeff arrived on time and completely removed our garage although it was pouring with rain. They cleared all the rubbish and left the area clean. Would thoughly recomend this company. Work carried out in Crawley, West Sussex."

    Alan Barrett
  • "Removed an asbestos garage roof, whole shed with asbestos roof, and then when there was further asbestos at the end of the garden took that too. Worked very hard solidly for two hours, loaded sheets, wore masks and suits. Great service and solved a big problem for me."

    Elizabeth Anderson
  • "I had 40 sqm of aertex ceiling removed in my house and the price came out as reasonable (particularly against 3 other quotes I had for the job). The job was completed in one day which I was chuffed with and the guys made sure that the house was safe for us to live in afterwards. Very happy with Goodbye Asbestos, would highly recommend."

    Olivia Lands
  • "I had my asbestos water tank removed from my loft in Croydon. Chris did a great job. They had about a weeks lead time. I needed this done ASAP and they were able to prioritise it and we booked it in next day. Thanks to Andy"

    Danny Williams
  • "Goodbye Asbestos provided a very polite and professional service on a pre-purchase where a suspicious material was identified by a surveyor. Tom gave us a quick turn around and timeframe and kept us updated throughout the process. Would highly recommend for a no fuss experience!"

    Elizabeth Packham
  • "Great service, friendly staff and competitive price. The asbestos was picked up by a diligent worker who came back and checked that there were no small bits on the ground. That really impressed me. Would recommend."

    James Goldbridge
  • "On finding Marley tiles on our floors we were in urgent need of having them removed. Goodbye Asbestos were amazing. They booked us in really quickly and on time, came and scraped up all the offending tiles and gripper rods. They disposed of the rubbish and sealed the under floor, leaving us ready for the laying of our new flooring. A job well done."

    Paul Tootill
  • "I have asked Goodbye Asbestos to remove my asbestos roof and replace it with insulated corrugated metal panels. I recommend them highly as I am very pleased with the quality of their workmanship, their attentive service and communications."

    Stefano Ferrari
  • "I have used Goodbye Asbestos twice, once removing an old asbestos shed and recently my large garage which had an asbestos roof. The guys are efficient, clean and friendly. All wear the appropriate clothing whilst handling the asbestos. Organising the quote and the demolition was easy. I'd highly recommend Goodbye Asbestos for any Asbestos removal you may require."

    Callum Stott
  • "I wanted to say a big thank you to Chris and the team for the superb job they did this morning in dismantling our horrible old asbestos/concrete garage! It was all done very quickly and professionally. They wore PPE and the asbestos roof panels were securely wrapped in plastic sheeting. The site was left clean and tidy afterwards. I also appreciated your sending me your waste licence and a copy of your insurance which was very reassuring as one reads some horror stories about waste disposal cowboys."

What are the latest asbestos regulations?

The current legislation in the UK is the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. They cover aspects like the duty to manage asbestos, risk assessments, asbestos registers, management plans, worker training and protection, control limits, licencing, notification and record keeping. If you need more help and advice, use our asbestos compliance service.

Why use trained asbestos professionals?

Asbestos isn’t something that’s easily identified by sight or smell, yet exposure to its microscopic fibres can lead to serious health issues like lung cancer, mesothelioma and asbestosis. By hiring trained professionals like Goodbye Asbestos, it means achieving accurate identification of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), safe asbestos handling and removal, and enhancing compliance with HSE regulations.
