Asbestos garage roof removal for Slindon Common

Asbestos garage roof removal in Slindon Common

Questions from Slindon Common

Do you cover small places like Slindon Common?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

My garage in Slindon Common 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.

How can I get a price?

Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

Does weather affect the work?

It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?

Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.

Do you give written quotes?

Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Which option is right?

Paint or overclad instead? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. Our guide covers the options. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Why choose us

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Houses, flats and business premises

Take a look at how we quote and our cost guide.

What happens next

Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.

Once we are done:

  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work
  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
  • Book your roofer in advance
  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof

Don’ts

Never cut or break the sheets.

Never cut or break the sheets.

Duty holders and landlords in Slindon Common

If you manage or own a block in Slindon Common, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.

Materials, one by one

Corrugated sheets

Sheets are wrapped for disposal.

Ridge pieces

Ridge cappings are typically asbestos cement too.

DIY and asbestos

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

How we work

In strong wind or heavy rain, we may have to stop, for safety. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. Late-December sunset in Slindon Common is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  2. We check the roof material first
  3. You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
  4. We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
