Questions from Aldwych
Could my house in Aldwych contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Aldwych can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Are garage roofs in Aldwych typically asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Duty holders and landlords in Aldwych
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Aldwych, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Step by step
Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, then loaded for disposal. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. In December, it’s dark in Aldwych by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Aldwych
Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Garages in a row or block
- Garages being knocked down
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Lean-to roofs
Garages on busy roads like the A4 and A301 need loading planned in advance.
Before booking anyone
- Suitable insurance for the work
- What is not included
- If the price includes VAT
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Good to know
A few things to be aware of:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.
