How far is Bullockstone from London?

Is garage roof removal licensed work?

Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
