What it might be made of
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

FAQs for Cliffs End
Are garage roofs in Cliffs End typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Cliffs End from London?
Cliffs End is about 64 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will 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.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
How can I get a price?
Just call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Duty holders and landlords in Cliffs End
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Cliffs End, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Weighing up your options
Does the roof have to come off? If it’s sound and you are not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
