DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
The process
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. We plan garage roof jobs in Preston Crowmarsh for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us the size of the garage and the access
- We work out how to reach the roof safely
- We agree a date that fits your new roof
- We take the roof off safely
- You get the waste paperwork
Before we arrive
- Clear the way to the work area
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Let us know if something’s broken
