Materials, one by one
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are generally asbestos cement too.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that is much lower than others: broken sheets, no controls or illegal dumping. Always ask for the consignment note. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Common questions in Albourne Green
Do you cover Albourne Green from London?
We cover Albourne Green, about 39 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small villages like Albourne Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. We can test a sample.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Responsibilities for owners
If you run a business from older premises in Albourne Green, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Afterwards
If you’re converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
A few practical points:
- Let us know where we can park
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Book your roofer in advance
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
What to avoid
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
