Healthcare asbestos removal

Surrey, London and the Home Counties

We understand healthcare environments demand the highest standards of safety and compliance. Hospitals, GP surgeries, dental practices, care homes and private clinics across London and Surrey must protect patients, staff and visitors from every possible risk, including asbestos exposure.

At Goodbye Asbestos, we provide in-depth asbestos surveys, management and licensed removal services for healthcare settings, working efficiently and discreetly to limit disruptions to your essential services.

Do hospitals and other healthcare settings have asbestos?

Many hospitals and healthcare buildings constructed or refurbished before 1999 contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). Asbestos was widely used for fireproofing, insulation and structural work in buildings, such as NHS hospitals and private medical facilities. This includes common areas like boiler rooms, suspended ceilings, floor tiles, fire wall panels and service ducts.

Asbestos fibres are dangerous if they’re disturbed, so identifying and managing these materials is essential for maintaining safe healthcare environments.

  • "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."

Should asbestos be removed from healthcare buildings?

Asbestos does not always require immediate removal. If materials stay in good condition and aren’t likely to be disturbed, they can often be safely managed while remaining in situ. However, you’ll need a structured asbestos management plan to ensure safety and compliance.

Healthcare settings undergo frequent upgrades, from ventilation improvements to clinical refurbishments. Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, a refurbishment and demolition survey must be carried out before intrusive works begin. In sensitive environments, such as hospitals and GP surgeries, careful planning and containment are essential to prevent contamination and ensure patient safety.
