Asbestos garage roof removal for Creekmouth
Creekmouth: your questions answered
Do you work near Barking Riverside station?
Yes, we cover Creekmouth and the area towards Barking Riverside station, about 0.8 miles east.
Do older homes in Creekmouth have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Creekmouth
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Sheet garages
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Carport roofs
Near open spaces such as Ripple Nature Reserve, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding.
What your quote should include
- Where the waste goes, with paperwork
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- Any exclusions
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Your options compared
Does the roof have to come off? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
