Asbestos garage roof removal for Queen's Bower properties

Typical jobs include double garages and garages in a row or block, including cement gutters, cement wall panels and bargeboards.
Rural garages near Queen's Bower are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Don’ts
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Materials we deal with
Wall panels
Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

Queen's Bower: your questions answered
Do you cover Queen's Bower and the area around Sandown station?
Yes. Sandown station is about 1.4 miles east of Queen's Bower, and we cover both.
Do you come out to small villages like Queen's Bower?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote.
Do you work in flats?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What it costs
We base our quote on:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- Material and condition
- Location, parking and any London charges
- The number of samples or the size of the building

Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is typically a separate job
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
