Asbestos help in Flackwell Heath

Asbestos garage roof removal near Flackwell Heath

The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. People often contact us about single garages and garages before a new roof or conversion, involving ridge pieces, downpipes and cement wall panels.

In Flackwell Heath, a garage may come with sheds or lean-tos roofed the same way, which can be removed together. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Materials we deal with

Gutters and downpipes

We take them down in whole lengths.

Corrugated sheets

Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.

DIY and asbestos

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Service details

Your questions about garage roof removal in Flackwell Heath

Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you work near Bourne End station?

Yes, we cover Flackwell Heath and the area towards Bourne End station, about 1.5 miles south.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Send us some photos.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?

If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

How we work

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. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. We plan garage roof jobs in Flackwell Heath for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:25pm.

  1. Describe the garage
  2. We work out how to reach the roof safely
  3. We agree a date that fits your new roof
  4. We take the roof off safely
  5. We clean up and send the paperwork
