Asbestos garage roof removal near Fir Toll

Garages around Fir Toll may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Common questions in Fir Toll
Are garage roofs in Fir Toll usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you come out to small villages like Fir Toll?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is normally quick once we’re set up.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
