Should you do it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Where asbestos turns up
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which need careful clearing.
These are some of the things we deal with in Canons Park:
- Garage conversions
- Carport roofs
- Garage blocks
- Sheet garages
For rented homes with garages close to Mill Hill Broadway station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.

For landlords, agents and businesses
For managing agents and freeholders in Canons Park, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
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.
Looking after things afterwards
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
Keeping things safe:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Things not to do
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.

FAQs for Canons Park
Do you work in Canons Park despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Do you cover Canons Park and the area around Mill Hill Broadway station?

Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
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.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
