Asbestos help in Hyde Heath

About our asbestos garage roof removal in Hyde Heath

An old asbestos cement garage roof in Hyde Heath tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is normally the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s concrete-panel garages and single and double garage roofs, we deal with bargeboards, cement gutters and cement wall panels.

In places like Hyde Heath, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

How it works

If the weather turns windy or very wet, we may pause or reschedule, for safety. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you. Garage roof removal in Hyde Heath is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:25pm.

  1. Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
  2. We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
  3. You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
  4. The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork

Before we arrive

  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Keep children and pets away on the day

After the job

If you’re converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work
  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
  • File the waste paperwork
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs

Things not to do

Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.

Never cut or break the sheets.

Common questions in Hyde Heath

Do you cover Hyde Heath from London?

We cover Hyde Heath, about 27 miles from central London.

Are garage roofs in Hyde Heath typically asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

How can I get a price?

Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

How long will the job take?

It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, though a single garage is normally quick once we are set up.

Weighing up your options

Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.

Why people choose us

  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Clear advice on your options

Prices and what affects them

Quotes vary because of:

  • How easy it is to reach
  • Travel and parking
  • The category of work
  • The survey scope

Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

What to photograph

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • A clear close-up
  • The parking area
  • Cracks or breaks
  • A rough size or measurement

Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Doing it yourself?

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
