If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Lean-tos and carports
- Storm-damaged sheets

FAQs for Hillstreet
My garage in Hillstreet has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do older homes in Hillstreet have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
How long will the job take?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, though a single garage is typically quick once we are set up.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
Good to know
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
