These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.

Asbestos garage roof removal in Horn Park

You cannot stand on an asbestos cement roof: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Typical jobs include garage conversions and lean-tos and carports, involving ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters.

In parts of London like Horn Park, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

FAQs for Horn Park

Do you work near Lee station?

Yes. Lee station is about 0.5 miles west of Horn Park, and we cover both.

Can you work in Horn Park with London’s parking rules?

Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.

Do you take down the walls too?

We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

Is my garage roof in Horn Park asbestos?

Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes. Send us the details of the premises.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Responsibilities for owners

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Which option is right?

Very cheap garage roof quotes can mean shortcuts: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Why people call us in Horn Park

You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:

  • Lean-to roofs
  • Old, cracked sheets
  • Garages before a new roof or conversion
  • Double garages

In Horn Park, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What category of work it is
  • What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof

  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work

Can I do it myself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

What it costs

Prices vary with:

  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • The size of the job
  • How much waste there is

Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
