Service details

Asbestos garage roof removal near Brockham

Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Mention your plans when you get in touch. Typical jobs include lean-tos and carports and concrete-panel garages, including cement wall panels, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.

Garages around Brockham may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

After the job

Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.

Going forward:

  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Plan the new roof before removal

Avoid these

Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.

How it works

In strong wind or heavy rain, we may have to stop, because safety comes first. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions. In December, it’s dark in Brockham by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

  1. Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
  2. We check the roof material first
  3. We quote and book a date around your roofer
  4. We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note

Getting ready

  • Ensure we can get to the area
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Weighing up your options

Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the roof is fragile, so there is a serious falls risk too. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

What you get

  • Quotes that spell out the scope
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces
  • Across London and the South East
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing

Common questions in Brockham

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Is asbestos common in Brockham homes?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you work on commercial premises?

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

Does someone need to be there?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.

How long will the job take?

A single garage is typically a short job, though access and condition affect it.

How can I get a price?

Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

Should you do it yourself?

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

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

What it costs

The cost depends on:

  • The type of material and its condition
  • Access to the area

A closer look at the materials

Ridge pieces

The ridge pieces are often the same material.

Fixings

Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.

Duty holders and landlords in Brockham

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
