Asbestos garage roof removal in Strood

Questions from Strood
Do you cover small places like Strood?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Strood contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Strood may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. A sample test will tell you.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, but most single garages are a short job once set up.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
