Asbestos garage roof removal near Ardleigh Green

Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. From storm-damaged sheets and block garages, we deal with ridge pieces, cement gutters and cement wall panels.

In London neighbourhoods like Ardleigh Green, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, so check who owns the block. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Why people call us in Ardleigh Green

Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across Greater London.

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:

  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Brittle, leaking roofs
  • Garages due for demolition
  • Block garages

Across Ardleigh Green, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

  • What isn’t included

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Should you do it yourself?

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

FAQs for Ardleigh Green

Do you cover Ardleigh Green and the area around Gidea Park station?

Yes. Gidea Park station is about 0.5 miles west of Ardleigh Green, and we cover both.

Do older homes in Ardleigh Green have asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Could my home contain asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.

For landlords, agents and businesses

If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Ardleigh Green, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
