Asbestos help in Bailey's Hard
Asbestos garage roof removal in Bailey's Hard
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Common materials are ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and bargeboards, and typical jobs are lean-to roofs and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs.
Rural garages near Bailey's Hard are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Common questions in Bailey's Hard
My garage in Bailey's Hard has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Generally, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Send us some photos.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Bailey's Hard

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.
