Pro Asbestos Removal is based in South Croydon (CR2), which means our team is on your doorstep. We are not a national call centre dispatching sub-contractors — when you call us, you speak directly with the people who will carry out the work. Our local base means faster response times across the CR postcode area, from Thornton Heath and Norbury in the north to Purley, Coulsdon, and Sanderstead in the south.
Croydon's housing mix spans Victorian terraces in the town centre, 1930s–60s semi-detached homes in Purley, Coulsdon, Sanderstead, and Selsdon, and post-war flats in Thornton Heath. The four asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) most commonly found in these properties are asbestos cement garage roofs, artex ceilings, asbestos floor tiles, and pipe lagging around boilers and heating systems. Each is stable when undisturbed but can be released into the air during repair or renovation, where the fibres become a serious health hazard. If you suspect any of these materials in your Croydon property, contact us before any work starts.
As a Croydon-based company, we cover the full South East region — from our homepage you can explore our full service area, which extends across Surrey, Greater London, Kent, Sussex, Essex, Berkshire, and Hampshire.

Why Croydon Homeowners Choose Pro Asbestos Removal
Choosing the right asbestos removal company in Croydon matters. You need a team that holds the correct licences, knows the local housing stock, and leaves you with the paperwork to prove the job was done properly.
HSE-Licensed Contractor
We hold a current Health & Safety Executive asbestos removal licence — a legal requirement for all notifiable non-licensed and licensed asbestos work. You can verify our licence number directly on the HSE public register.
UKATA-Certified Operatives
Every operative working on your Croydon property holds a current UKATA (UK Asbestos Training Association) certificate. Training is renewed annually, not left to lapse.
UKAS-Accredited Laboratory
All asbestos samples are analysed by a UKAS-accredited laboratory. You receive a written report confirming fibre type and concentration — not a verbal opinion.
Full Waste Consignment Notes
Every job includes a licensed waste carrier consignment note and disposal certificate. This is your legal proof that asbestos waste left your property correctly under the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
24/48-Hour Croydon Response
Site survey within 48 working hours of your enquiry across the CR postcode area. Same-day callout for confirmed asbestos disturbances and emergency situations. Most domestic Croydon jobs are scheduled within 5 working days of quote acceptance.

What Asbestos Removal Costs in Croydon
Indicative price ranges for the three most common Croydon jobs: a single garage roof removal typically costs £400–£900; a full garage demolition and disposal runs £800–£1,800 depending on size and access; artex ceiling removal in a single room ranges from £350–£700. These are guide figures — the final price depends on ACM type confirmed by sample, site access, quantity of material, and whether re-roofing is included.

DIY vs Licensed Asbestos Removal — Why It's Not Worth the Risk
The most expensive mistake Croydon homeowners make is attempting DIY removal or hiring an unlicensed contractor.
| Approach | Legal status | Typical cost | Health risk | Disposal proof |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DIY removal | Illegal for licensed work; legal-but-discouraged for some non-licensed materials | £0 upfront; fines up to £20,000 + clean-up costs | High — uncontrolled fibre release | None |
| Unlicensed contractor | Legal only for non-notifiable, non-licensed work | £200–£500 typical | Medium — improper containment is common | Often missing or fraudulent |
| Licensed contractor (HSE) | Required for all licensed and most notifiable non-licensed work | £400–£1,500 typical garage roof; varies by job | Low — controlled enclosure under CAR 2012 | Full consignment note + disposal certificate |
For any disturbance of asbestos cement, asbestos insulation board (AIB), sprayed coating, or pipe lagging, an HSE-licensed contractor is the legal and safest route. The cost of licensed removal is always lower than the cost of an enforcement notice, a contamination clean-up, or a failed property sale.
What Croydon Customers Say
"I have recently purchased a late 1950s 3-bed maisonette that was riddled with asbestos in the flooring in every room. The Pro Asbestos Removal team came and quoted me quickly and carried out the job fast and done an amazing professional job and left the property immaculate. I couldn't ask for more and highly recommend!"

Ahmad Sharif Amiri
Google Review
"I was impressed with how Pro Asbestos Removal managed the asbestos test samples. They didn't just collect and analyse them — they took the time to explain what each result meant and how it could affect our property. It felt like they genuinely cared about keeping us safe, not just finishing the job."

Do you provide asbestos surveys for commercial properties in Croydon town centre?
Yes. We carry out management surveys, refurbishment surveys, and demolition surveys for commercial properties across Croydon town centre and the wider CR postcode area. Duty holders under CAR 2012 Regulation 4 are legally required to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises. Contact us to arrangecommercial asbestos surveys in Croydon.
Do I need an asbestos survey before selling my Croydon home?
There is no legal requirement to commission a survey before selling, but apre-purchase asbestos survey can prevent a sale from collapsing. Buyers' solicitors increasingly request asbestos information on pre-2000 properties, and undisclosed ACMs discovered after exchange can trigger renegotiation or withdrawal. A management survey gives you a clear picture before you go to market.
