About our asbestos garage roof removal in Grove

- Domestic and commercial work
- No removal until we know what it is
- Waste paperwork for every removal

What we do and do not cover
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- High winds can delay roof work
- Different materials need a different approach
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
Common materials
- Bargeboards
- Cement wall panels
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Roof felt
- Fixings and bolts
- Ridge pieces
For landlords, agents and businesses
For managing agents and freeholders in Grove, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Materials we deal with
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are usually asbestos cement too.
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Grove: your questions answered
Do you cover Grove from London?
Grove is about 58 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos common in Grove homes?
Any home in Grove built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Send us some photos.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
After we have finished in Grove
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.
Once we’re done:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Tell us about parking and access
- Let neighbours know beforehand
Don’ts
Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. At the end, we tell you what was done and what happens next.
