Asbestos garage roof removal for Bromley properties

An old asbestos cement garage roof in Bromley tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. People often contact us about garages being knocked down and garages due a new roof, including cement gutters, ridge pieces and downpipes.

In parts of London like Bromley, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, so check who owns the block. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Questions from Bromley

Can you work in Bromley with London’s parking rules?

We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.

Do you work near Bromley South station?

Yes. Bromley South station is close to the centre of Bromley, and we cover the whole area.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.

What happens to the old roof sheets?

They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.

After we have finished in Bromley

The wrapped sheets go to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.

After we have finished:

  • Send photos of the whole garage and the access
  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work
  • Let us know where we can park

Don’ts

Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Where asbestos turns up

Garage roofs were often made of asbestos cement until 1999, so they’re common across Greater London.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:

  • Lean-tos and carports
  • Broken sheets after high winds
  • Garages due a new roof
  • Concrete-panel garages

Near open spaces such as Downham Woodland Walk, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once.

What to look for in a quote

  • How the work will be done, and the controls used
  • What is not included
  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note

Choosing an asbestos contractor

How it works

We wear disposable coveralls and respirators throughout, and nobody else comes near. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions. Garage roof removal in Bromley is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.

  1. Get in touch with photos
  2. We confirm the material, testing a sample if needed
  3. We quote for the removal and disposal
  4. We remove the sheets carefully
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken away, and you get the consignment note

How to prepare

  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Clear the way to the work area

Can I do it myself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

Duty holders and landlords in Bromley

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
