FAQs for Beckley Furnace

Do you come out to small villages like Beckley Furnace?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

How far is Beckley Furnace from London?

Beckley Furnace is about 48 miles from central London, well within our area.

Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?

Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Send us some photos.

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
