How asbestos garage roof removal works in Bell Green

Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Bell Green. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, and give you the waste paperwork. From garage blocks and lean-to roofs, we cover cement gutters, ridge pieces and downpipes.

In London neighbourhoods like Bell Green, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Can I do it myself?

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Questions from Bell Green

My garage in Bell Green has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Do you work near Lower Sydenham station?

Yes, we cover Bell Green, including the streets around Lower Sydenham station.

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.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.

Is asbestos dangerous?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

Do you cover Bell Green?

Yes, Bell Green is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Your options compared

Does the roof have to come off? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Why people call us in Bell Green

Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, so they become brittle.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:

  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Double garages
  • Garages due for demolition
  • Garages in a row or block

If the garage opens onto a main road such as the A2218, tell us about parking and access.
