About our asbestos garage roof removal in Temple Mills

Removing cement roof sheets is usually non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Common materials are corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and bargeboards, and typical jobs are lean-tos and carports and single garages.

In London neighbourhoods like Temple Mills, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

What it costs

These are the main things that affect the price of garage roof removal:

  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • Disposal costs
  • How many samples are needed

Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

How it works

Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and keep the area clear of everyone else. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Temple Mills is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

  1. Describe the garage
  2. We plan the access and the waste
  3. We agree a date that fits your new roof
  4. We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up and send the paperwork

Before we arrive

  • Clear the way to the work area
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Let us know where we can park

After the job

The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.

After we’ve finished:

  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
  • Keep the consignment note afterwards
  • Send photos of the whole garage and the access
  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof

Avoid these

Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.

FAQs for Temple Mills

Are garage roofs in Temple Mills typically asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Do you work in Temple Mills despite London parking restrictions?

Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.

Can you remove the whole garage?

We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically aren’t licensed.

For businesses and landlords in Temple Mills

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

If you manage or own a block in Temple Mills, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

What we do and don’t cover

A few things to be aware of:

  • Different materials need a different approach
  • Re-roofing is normally separate
  • Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

Materials we see

Service details

Which option is right?

Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Ask for the waste paperwork. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
