Common questions in Old Alresford
My garage in Old Alresford has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Old Alresford from London?
We cover Old Alresford, about 54 miles from central London.
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. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Afterwards
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris.
A few practical points:
- Give us a rough size
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Tell us about parking and access
- Book your roofer in advance
