Asbestos Removal Wimbledon

Wimbledon's appeal as a residential area is inseparable from its housing history. The borough of Merton contains some of London's most varied building stock — from late-Victorian terraces in Colliers Wood and South Wimbledon to the substantial inter-war semis that line the roads between Wimbledon Village and Raynes Park, and the post-war council and private developments that filled in the gaps through the 1960s and 1970s.

Asbestos was used across all of these construction periods, but in different materials depending on when a property was built. In a Victorian terrace, the risk is pipe lagging around old central heating systems and boiler insulation. In a 1930s semi, it is the asbestos cement garage roof, the shed cladding, and the soffit boards under the eaves. In a 1960s flat, it is artex on every ceiling, asbestos floor tiles beneath the vinyl, and asbestos insulation board behind the boiler cupboard.

Indicative price ranges for the three most common Wimbledon jobs: a single garage roof removal typically costs £800–£1,500; a full garage demolition and disposal runs £1,200–£2,500 depending on size and access; artex ceiling removal in a single room ranges from £400–£900. 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.
