Hyde End questions
Do older homes in Hyde End 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.
Are garage roofs in Hyde End generally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

Where asbestos turns up
Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Garages in a row or block
- Garage conversions
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Garages being knocked down
Near open spaces such as Sands Bank, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.
What to look for in a quote
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- What paperwork you get
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- The scope of the job, in writing
The process
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and keeps dust to a minimum. Late-December sunset in Hyde End is about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access

- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole

How to prepare
