Typical jobs include roofs to clear before demolition and single and double garage roofs, including downpipes, bargeboards and corrugated roof sheets.

FAQs for Lordington
Are garage roofs in Lordington usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How far is Lordington from London?
We cover Lordington, about 55 miles from central London.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
Where do the sheets go?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Doing it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
