Asbestos garage roof removal in Cyprus

How asbestos garage roof removal works in Cyprus

If you are not sure your garage roof in Cyprus is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. From roofs to clear before demolition and carport roofs, we deal with ridge pieces, bargeboards and cement wall panels and more.

In London neighbourhoods like Cyprus, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, so check who owns the block. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Weighing up your options

Paint or overclad instead? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. Our guide covers the options. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

What you get

  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing

See our prices page and published price ranges.

What happens next

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it’s useful when you sell.

Staying safe afterwards:

  • Photos of the garage and the way in help
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone

Avoid these

Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.

Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.

Duty holders and landlords in Cyprus

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Doing it yourself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Step by step

We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. While we work, the area stays out of bounds. Garage roof removal in Cyprus is planned around daylight: sunset is about 3:50pm in December and about 9:20pm in June.

  1. Send photos of the garage, the roof and the access
  2. We confirm the material, testing if needed
  3. We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
  4. The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork

How to prepare

  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Mention any parking restrictions

Cyprus: your questions answered

Are garage roofs in Cyprus generally asbestos?

Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

Do you work in Cyprus despite London parking restrictions?

Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Do you take down the walls too?

Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.

Do you work in flats?

Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

What paperwork will I get?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

How long will the job take?

Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
