How asbestos garage roof removal works in Connaught Village

You cannot stand on an asbestos cement roof: they will not take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Typical materials include cement gutters, bargeboards and cement wall panels, and people normally contact us about single and double garage roofs and roofs to clear before demolition.

In parts of London like Connaught Village, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

How we work

Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. Garage roof removal in Connaught Village is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.

  1. Describe the garage
  2. We work out how to reach the roof safely
  3. We agree a date that fits your new roof
  4. We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up and send the paperwork

My garage in Connaught Village has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Will I get the price in writing?

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

Do you work in flats?

Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.

Can the roof be overclad?

It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Do not pressure-wash it first.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
