Asbestos garage roof removal for Pyrton properties

Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Mention your plans when you get in touch. Typical jobs include roofs to clear before demolition and single garages, involving ridge pieces, bargeboards and cement wall panels.

In a village like Pyrton, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

FAQs for Pyrton

My garage in Pyrton has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

Do you cover Pyrton from London?

Pyrton is about 41 miles from central London, well within our area.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

How can I get a price?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

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

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

What does licensed work mean?

It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

What happens to the old roof sheets?

They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with paperwork for your records.

Weighing up your options

Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. The cost of garage roof removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

Duty holders and landlords in Pyrton

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Materials we deal with

Roof felt

We’ll tell you if it needs testing.

Corrugated sheets

Sheets are wrapped for disposal.

Step by step

Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. Late-December sunset in Pyrton is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Can I do it myself?

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.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
