Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Questions from Edgcott
Could my house in Edgcott contain asbestos?
If your home in Edgcott was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover small places like Edgcott?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Typically, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
After the job
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- File the waste paperwork
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Give us a rough size
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
What to avoid
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never cut or break the sheets.
