Bracknell: your questions answered
Could my house in Bracknell contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How far is Bracknell from London?
Bracknell is about 29 miles from central London, well within our area.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Generally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
How we work
Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and nobody else comes near. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. Late-December sunset in Bracknell is about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
- You get a written quote
- We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can get to the area
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

Prices and what affects them
Quotes vary because of:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- The size of the job
- How many samples are needed
- How easy it is to reach
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Helping us quote
A few photos can save a site visit:
- An idea of size
- Cracks or breaks
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Labels, if any
Every job is quoted in writing. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
For managing agents and freeholders in Bracknell, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Materials we deal with
Gutters and downpipes
They’re removed whole where possible.
Ridge pieces
They’re removed with the sheets and wrapped together.
Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Limits to be aware of
The usual limits are:
- High winds can delay roof work
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Gutters and downpipes
- Ridge pieces
- Roof felt
- Cement wall panels
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Fixings and bolts
Which option is right?
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
