Artington questions
Do you cover small places like Artington?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Artington and the area around Shalford station?
Yes. Shalford station is about 0.7 miles south-east of Artington, and we cover both.
Do you work in Artington?
We do: our area includes Artington and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we’ll quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Typically not: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Artington
Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Tell us your plans when you ask for a quote. People often contact us about brittle, leaking roofs and garage blocks, involving ridge pieces, bargeboards and downpipes.
In a village like Artington, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Lean-to roofs
- Garage blocks
- Sheet garages
- Garages being knocked down
Near open spaces such as St Catherine's Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once.
