A closer look at the materials
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Gutters and downpipes
We take them down in whole lengths.
Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Choosing the right option
What about painting or overcladding? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. See our guide to repair, paint or replace. Our quotes are clear about VAT.
Why choose us
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Clear advice on your options
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
