Asbestos garage roof removal for Marley

Asbestos garage roof removal in Marley

Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so have the replacement roof planned first. Tell us your plans when you ask for a quote. Typical jobs include garages being knocked down and garages due a new roof, involving corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and cement wall panels.

FAQs for Marley

Do you work near Snowdown station?

Yes, we cover Marley and the area towards Snowdown station, about 3.5 miles east.

Do you come out to small villages like Marley?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.

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.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.

Prices and what affects them

When we quote, we look at:

  • Disposal costs
  • The category of work
  • Access to the area
  • What the material is and its state

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Sending photos

To help us quote quickly, send:

  • The parking area
  • An idea of size
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • A close-up from a safe distance

Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: just call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

Doing it yourself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

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

Materials, one by one

Roof felt

We’ll say if it should be tested.

Ridge pieces

We take them off with the sheets.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed at the same time if you prefer.

A few practical points:

  • Let neighbours know beforehand
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Keep pets and children inside

Don’ts

Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.
