Your questions about garage roof removal in Gipsy Hill
Do you work in Gipsy Hill despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.
Do you cover Gipsy Hill and the area around Gipsy Hill station?
Yes. Gipsy Hill station is close to the centre of Gipsy Hill, and we cover the whole area.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Where do the sheets go?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the 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.
