Asbestos help in Cippenham

After we have finished in Cippenham

Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Keep the consignment note afterwards
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof

Things not to do

Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.

Asbestos garage roof removal for Cippenham properties

Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. Typical jobs include cracked, mossy or leaking roofs and pieces of broken roof, including corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and downpipes.

In a smaller place like Cippenham, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

What we deal with in Cippenham

Cracked or broken sheets let water in, and repairs on old sheets rarely last long.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:

  • Garages before a new roof or conversion

Materials, one by one

Corrugated sheets

Sheets are wrapped for disposal.

Ridge pieces

The ridge pieces are often the same material.

Can I do it myself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Your options compared

Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.

  2. We work out how to reach the roof safely
  3. We time it around your roofer
  4. We take the roof off safely
