About our asbestos garage roof removal in Normans' Bay

Questions from Normans' Bay
Do you cover small places like Normans' Bay?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
My garage in Normans' Bay has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Do you cover Normans' Bay?
Yes, we do: our area includes Normans' Bay and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

A closer look at the materials
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Keep pets and children inside
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
Things not to do
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Normans' Bay
Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Old, cracked sheets
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Carport roofs
Near open spaces such as Gillham Wood, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.
What your quote should include
- What paperwork you get
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Where the waste goes, with paperwork
- Suitable insurance for the work
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- What the material is and its state
- The survey scope
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Location, parking and any London charges
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
