Common questions in Kennington
Do you cover Kennington and the area around Ashford International station?
Yes, we cover Kennington and the area towards Ashford International station, about 1.7 miles south.
My garage in Kennington has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Typically not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Do you cover Kennington?
Yes, Kennington is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
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 paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.

Weighing up your options
Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; cracks, leaks or a conversion typically mean removal. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.

Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Kennington, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
