Your questions about garage roof removal in Streatham Hill
Do older homes in Streatham Hill have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Streatham Hill can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work near Streatham Hill station?
Yes. Streatham Hill station is close to the centre of Streatham Hill, and we cover the whole area.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Responsibilities for owners
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
What’s included, and what is not
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Re-roofing is normally separate
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.
