Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Hounslow
Cracked or broken sheets let water in, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
In older properties, we often see:
- Single garages
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Block garages
- Storm-damaged sheets
For rented homes with garages close to Sunbury station, check what the roof is made of before arranging repairs.
Questions to ask before you book
- The method and controls
- What is not included
- Suitable insurance for the work
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
For landlords, agents and businesses
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Hounslow, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Hounslow: your questions answered
My garage in Hounslow has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work near Sunbury station?
Yes. Sunbury station is about 0.9 miles south-east of Hounslow, and we cover both.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Do you work in flats?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is typically a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
