Asbestos garage roof removal for Brize Norton properties
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. Whether it’s garages being knocked down and garages before a new roof or conversion, we deal with cement gutters, bargeboards and ridge pieces and more.
Rural garages near Brize Norton are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

For businesses and landlords in Brize Norton
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
For managing agents and freeholders in Brize Norton, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Can I do it myself?
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.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Brize Norton questions
How far is Brize Norton from London?
Brize Norton is about 66 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Brize Norton have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Brize Norton can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, but it must still be done properly.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
