FAQs

What licence or compliance do you hold?

We’re HSE-licensed (one of 350 UK contractors), CHAS-accredited, and independently audited. Certificates available on request.

How do you ensure my home or site stays safe during removal?

Full containment, air monitoring (where applicable), and licensed operatives keep dust and fibres contained. We leave your space clean, compliant, and certificate-ready.

What’s the difference between a management survey and a refurbishment survey?

A management survey is non-intrusive and designed for ongoing building occupation, while a refurbishment survey is intrusive and required before any work that disturbs the building fabric.

What happens if asbestos is found unexpectedly on site?

Our emergency response team can attend fast, secure the area, survey, and plan removal — keeping your project on track safely.

Do you provide asbestos awareness training for our staff or contractors?

Yes — we offer practical online and in-person courses that meet HSE requirements, tailored for site teams or facilities managers.

Great work done by the men taking down our asbestos garage. They even went above and beyond after we kindly asked if they could ankle grind down a metal Pole for us. No work was too much for the two who took down our garage. Lovely to chat too as-well. The process was quick. I sent for an enquiring quote and Danni got back within the hour which was very quick, very fair and reasonable price and the turn around time was just over two weeks which couldn’t of asked for better. The invoice came the night before and it’s paid upon completion which has been done so no pressure there! City Environmental Services I would highly recommended!! Well done all and a massive thank you from us for freeing up the space for our children to have a safe place to play.

City Environmental were extremely professional and carried out quality work. We needed some asbestos undercloaking removed and the entire process was extremely smooth, right from the initial call with the office to the works being completed. I couldn’t recommend them more. I will be using them again for further renovation!

Absolutely first class service, from booking the removal and disposal of an asbestos roof, through to job completion, everything was handled professionally and at a very reasonable price and the site was left clean and tidy - I couldn’t ask for more.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
