- We confirm the material, testing if needed
- We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
- The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note

Helpful guides
Why people call us in Hollington
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Lean-tos and carports
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Garage blocks
Older houses in Hollington, near Church of St Thomas or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, often with cement roofs.

Do you work near Kintbury station?

Is asbestos dangerous?

That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Normally not: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
