Loughton: your questions answered
How far is Loughton from London?
We cover Loughton, about 47 miles from central London.
Do you cover Loughton and the area around Milton Keynes Central station?
Yes. Milton Keynes Central station is close to the centre of Loughton, and we cover the whole area.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, but most single garages are a short job once set up.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
