Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
For managing agents and freeholders in Aldborough Hatch, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

Helpful guides
Your questions about garage roof removal in Aldborough Hatch
Do older homes in Aldborough Hatch have asbestos?
Any home in Aldborough Hatch built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
My garage in Aldborough Hatch has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work in Aldborough Hatch?
Yes, Aldborough Hatch is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
