Responsibilities for owners
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
If your business premises in Sulhamstead were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Choosing the right option
Very cheap garage roof quotes can mean shortcuts: broken sheets, no controls or illegal dumping. Ask for the waste paperwork. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Sulhamstead: your questions answered
Are garage roofs in Sulhamstead generally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Could my house in Sulhamstead contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Sulhamstead can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Typically not: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
How do I get a quote?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
