Questions from Apuldram
Are garage roofs in Apuldram normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work near Chichester station?
Yes, we cover Apuldram and the area towards Chichester station, about 1.2 miles north-east.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Typically, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Afterwards
File the waste paperwork: it’s useful when you sell.
Some practical advice:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Keep pets and children inside
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
Avoid these
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Which option is right?
DIY garage roof removal? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the roof is fragile, so there is a serious falls risk too. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
