Your questions about garage roof removal in East Wellow
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover East Wellow and the area around Romsey station?
Yes. Romsey station is about 3.6 miles north-east of East Wellow, and we cover both.
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.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
The process
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start. Garage roof removal in East Wellow is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, in June not until about 9:25pm.
