Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Godalming
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Garages due a new roof
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Single garages
- Garage blocks
Garages on busy roads like the A3100 and B2130 need loading planned in advance.
Before you book anyone
- Suitable insurance for the work
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- How fibres will be kept down
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
Can I do it myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: broken sheets, no controls or illegal dumping. Always ask for the consignment note. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
