Welcome to J&A Asbestos Removal Specialists Ltd
Here at J&A Asbestos Removal Specialists Ltd, we have been providing essential asbestos solutions to the people of Hitchin since 2017.
From accurate asbestos testing and detailed site surveys to effective asbestos management and encapsulation to safe asbestos removal and disposal, we are the one-stop solution for individuals and businesses alike.
A key service we provide to our Hitchin customers is removing damaged and deteriorated asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) from domestic and commercial buildings across the town. We are fully trained and certified asbestos removalists, with decades of experience between us to rely on.
Some ACMs may not need to be removed – at least, not immediately. If the materials are intact, they can be left to their own devices, and, even if slightly deteriorated, an asbestos management plan may be sufficient to protect our clients. This often includes encapsulation of the affected area, where the damaged asbestos is sealed to prevent microfibres from escaping into the air.
If a building containing ACMs is scheduled for demolition or a major renovation, care needs to be taken not to destroy any asbestos during the process.
This could be resolved by careful planning to avoid the ACMs, but it’s more likely that the materials will need to be removed from the site by our experts before the complete demolition can take place.
To perform a thorough and effective asbestos removal service, we first need to locate and identify the type of ACMs we’re dealing with. This requires accurate testing of suspect materials at a local facility. Our technicians will take samples of the ACMs and, from the results, compile a detailed assessment of the building’s condition. In this report, we recommend the safest and most effective way to manage or remove the presence of asbestos.
Asbestos is a hazardous material that needs to be handled by experts, particularly when it falls into a state of disrepair.
Fortunately for our Hitchin clients, we have the skills and expertise to remove and dispose of at-risk ACMs in a safe and legally compliant manner, greatly minimising the risk of exposure to anyone in the affected building.

What is asbestos and why is it dangerous?
Asbestos is one of the most hazardous materials ever used in the UK construction industry.
Before their negative effects were known, asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) were much in demand for their heat resistance, insulation, and general strength and durability. When damaged, however, microfibres of asbestos are released into the air, where they can be easily inhaled.
These fibres settle on the lungs and, over many years of exposure, can result in several deadly conditions, including asbestosis, mesothelioma, and lung cancer.
Any survey should indicate the presence of ACMs in your home or commercial building, and you should have been made aware of such surveys upon purchasing the property. While ACMs were still legal as late as 2000, many building firms stopped using them long before that. If you suspect that asbestos might have been used in the construction of your property, the only way to be certain is with an asbestos test performed by trained and qualified technicians.
It depends. Asbestos-containing materials are only dangerous if they have been damaged or are currently deteriorating, at which point they risk dispersing their hazardous microfibres into the air. Where possible, we try to manage any ACMs through encapsulation. However, if the materials are too degraded, professional removal and disposal may be the safest and most efficient option.
The entire J&A Asbestos Removal Specialists Ltd team has been trained to the highest industry standards, and our technicians are fully qualified to perform low-grade asbestos testing, maintenance, and removal. For clarity, we are not licensed to handle other kinds of asbestos. However, we do have a full public liability insurance policy in place to ensure your interests are protected at all times.
