What else we do in Chadwell Heath
Your questions about garage roof removal in Chadwell Heath
Are garage roofs in Chadwell Heath typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can you work in Chadwell Heath with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
What if my house is newer?
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 happens to the old roof sheets?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
What it might be made of
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. We wet them and lower them whole.
