For landlords, agents and businesses
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Limehouse must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
What we deal with in Limehouse
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which need careful clearing.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Block garages
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
Around Lavender Pond, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once.
What your quote should include
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
- Suitable insurance for the work
- Which areas and materials are covered
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
How we price garage roof removal
We base our quote on:
- Parking and access charges
- How much waste there is
- The category of work
- The quantity or area
Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Photos that help
Photos often save us a visit:
- Labels, if any
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- A rough size or measurement
- A wide shot showing where the material is
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Common questions in Limehouse
Do you work near Limehouse station?
Yes, we cover Limehouse, including the streets around Limehouse station.
Do older homes in Limehouse have asbestos?
Any home in Limehouse built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
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.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
