Asbestos garage roof removal for Sedrup properties

Removing cement roof sheets is typically non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. People often contact us about garages due a new roof and brittle, leaking roofs, involving downpipes, cement wall panels and cement gutters.

Rural garages near Sedrup are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Can I do it myself?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Questions from Sedrup

Could my house in Sedrup contain asbestos?

If your home in Sedrup was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

How far is Sedrup from London?

Sedrup is about 38 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you work in flats?

We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

How long will the job take?

Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.

Can you remove the whole garage?

Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

After we’ve finished in Sedrup

The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.

Some practical advice:

  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
  • Keep pets and children inside
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Photos of the garage and the way in help

Things not to do

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

For businesses and landlords in Sedrup

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

If you manage or own a block in Sedrup, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

Options to consider in Sedrup

Does the roof have to come off? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Why us?

  • Reports and results you can share
  • No removal until we know what it is
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • Covering London and the South East
