What it might be made of
Fixings
Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. We wet them and lower them whole.
Asbestos garage roof removal for Kettle Corner properties
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical materials include cement wall panels, downpipes and ridge pieces, and people usually contact us about prefab garages with cement walls and storm-damaged sheets.

DIY and asbestos
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.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Kettle Corner questions
My garage in Kettle Corner has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work near East Farleigh station?
Yes, we cover Kettle Corner and the area towards East Farleigh station, about 0.7 miles east.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
