Doing it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Questions from Middlegreen

Do older homes in Middlegreen have asbestos?

Any home in Middlegreen built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

How far is Middlegreen from London?

We cover Middlegreen, about 20 miles from central London.

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

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is usually needed.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

Typically, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

How long will the job take?

Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.

What if the weather’s bad?

It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Middlegreen

Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, so they become brittle.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:

  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Lean-tos and carports
  • Garages before a new roof or conversion
  • Double garages

Properties near Stoke Common may have outbuildings as well as a garage, so it can make sense to do them at once.

Comparing quotes

  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Where the waste goes, with paperwork
  • How the work will be done, and the controls used
  • Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed

More about this service

What happens next

If you’re converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.

A few practical points:

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Let neighbours know beforehand
  • Give us a rough size

What to avoid

If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.

Never cut or break the sheets.

What happens

On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Garage roof removal in Middlegreen is planned around daylight: sunset is about 3:55pm in December and about 9:25pm in June.
