In a village like Coleshill, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

FAQs for Coleshill
Do older homes in Coleshill have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you come out to small villages like Coleshill?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
How can I get a price?
Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Choosing the right option
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and there is a real risk of falling through the roof. Every quote says whether VAT is included.
