Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Choosing the right option
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
What you get
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond

Duty holders and landlords in Chackmore
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Chackmore must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Materials we deal with
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Corrugated sheets
Sheets are wrapped for disposal.
Questions from Chackmore
Do you come out to small villages like Chackmore?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do older homes in Chackmore have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually are not licensed.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Is my garage roof in Chackmore asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
