Afterwards
Share the paperwork with your builder.
To avoid problems in future:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Give us a rough size
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
Avoid these
Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Should you do it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Romford questions
My garage in Romford has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work near Romford station?
Yes. Romford station is close to the centre of Romford, and we cover the whole area.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Do you cover Romford?
Yes, Romford is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
What it costs
Quotes vary because of:
- Material and condition
- Disposal costs
- The quantity or area
- Access to the area
Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Photos that help
Photo tips:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- A close-up from a safe distance
- The parking area
- Labels, if any
