Lower Common: your questions answered
Do you cover Lower Common from London?
We cover Lower Common, about 36 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Lower Common have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
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.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then take the waste away. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. Garage roof removal in Lower Common is planned around daylight: sunset is about 3:55pm in December and about 9:25pm in June.

Helpful guides
The scope of garage roof removal
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
- Ridge pieces
- Roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes
What happens next
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Let us know where we can park
- File the waste paperwork
What to avoid
Never cut or break the sheets.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Where asbestos turns up
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which need careful clearing.
In older properties, we often see:
- Garages due a new roof
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Concrete-panel garages
- Old, cracked sheets
If you let a house with a garage near Crowthorne station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.
What your quote should include
- What paperwork you get
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
Choosing the right option
Removal first, then the new roof, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Why us?
- Domestic and commercial work
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Records for your files
- Quotes that spell out the scope

Responsibilities for owners
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

DIY and asbestos
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
