Responsibilities for owners

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Choosing the right option
DIY garage roof removal? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the roof is fragile, so there is a serious falls risk too. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Why people choose us

DIY and asbestos
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

Brimsdown questions
Are garage roofs in Brimsdown typically asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Could my house in Brimsdown contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Brimsdown?
Yes, Brimsdown is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
