Buckingham questions

Do you cover Buckingham from London?

We cover Buckingham, about 51 miles from central London.

Are garage roofs in Buckingham usually asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

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

Can asbestos go in my bin?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Where do the sheets go?

They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.

Duty holders and landlords in Buckingham

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

DIY and asbestos

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

What’s included, and what is not

To be clear about the scope:

  • Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
  • We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is usually a separate job
  • Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

Common materials

  • Bargeboards
  • Roof felt
  • Corrugated cement sheets
  • Ridge pieces
  • Cement wall panels
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Fixings and bolts

How we price garage roof removal

These are the main things that affect the price of garage roof removal:

  • Parking and access charges
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • The size of the job

There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

What to photograph

What to photograph:

  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
  • Approximate dimensions
  • A photo of the whole area

Photos from a safe distance help: send them through our contact page.

Materials we deal with

Gutters and downpipes

We take them down in whole lengths.

Wall panels

Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.

Where asbestos turns up

Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.

Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:

  • Lean-to roofs
  • Block garages
  • Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
  • Garages being knocked down

If the garage opens onto a main road such as the A421 and A422, tell us about parking and access.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • VAT, clearly stated
  • Waste disposal and the consignment note
  • Any exclusions

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Step by step

If the weather turns windy or very wet, we may pause or reschedule, because safety comes first. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. Late-December sunset in Buckingham is about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
  2. If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
  3. We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
  4. The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork

How to prepare

  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them

Ask for a quote

To get a quote, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.

What happens next

Keep the consignment note with your property records: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Photos of the garage and the way in help
  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof

Things not to do

Keep weight off the roof.

If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
