Typical garage roof jobs in Nash

Garage roofs were often made of asbestos cement until 1999, so many garages across Greater London still have them.

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

  • Garages being knocked down
  • Lean-tos and carports
  • Brittle, leaking roofs
  • Concrete-panel garages

Around Hutchinson's Bank, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once.

What your quote should include

  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • What isn’t included
  • How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Step by step

After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then take the waste away. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and use controls to keep dust down. Late-December sunset in Nash is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

  1. Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
  2. We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
  3. You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
  4. The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note

Getting ready

  • Let us know if something’s broken
  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them

How we price garage roof removal

Quotes vary because of:

  • The type of material and its condition
  • The category of work
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • How much there is

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Photos that help

The most useful photos are:

  • Street parking nearby
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
  • The access route

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

DIY and asbestos

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

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.

What it might be made of

Wall panels

These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.

Fixings

Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.

Questions from Nash

Can you work in Nash with London’s parking rules?

Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do you cover Nash and the area around Hayes (Kent) station?

Yes. Hayes (Kent) station is about 1.4 miles north of Nash, and we cover both.

How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?

Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. A sample test will tell you.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.

How do I get a quote?

Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.

What if my house is newer?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?

Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.

Duty holders and landlords in Nash

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Nash must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

After we’ve finished in Nash

We clear up and check for fragments before we leave.

After we’ve finished:

  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Keep the consignment note afterwards
  • Let neighbours know beforehand

What to avoid

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
