Asbestos garage roof removal in Hungerford
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Hungerford
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical jobs include brittle, leaking roofs and garage blocks, including corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and cement gutters.
Garages around Hungerford may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Hungerford
Do you come out to small villages like Hungerford?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Is asbestos common in Hungerford homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Hungerford can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
