Asbestos help in Cubitt Town
Cubitt Town: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Cubitt Town homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Are garage roofs in Cubitt Town normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
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.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
Asbestos garage roof removal in Cubitt Town
Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Mention your plans when you get in touch. Typical jobs include double garages and garages due a new roof, involving bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels.
In Cubitt Town, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
DIY and asbestos
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Good to know

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
The process
We wear disposable coveralls and respirators throughout, and keep the area clear of everyone else. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and keeps dust to a minimum. In December, it’s dark in Cubitt Town by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
