Asbestos garage roof removal for Tinkers Cross
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Tinkers Cross
Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Tell us your plans when you ask for a quote. We often deal with corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and bargeboards, and people generally contact us about cracked, mossy or leaking roofs and double garages.
In a village like Tinkers Cross, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We only recommend work that is needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Options to consider in Tinkers Cross
Very cheap garage roof quotes can mean shortcuts: broken sheets, no controls or illegal dumping. Always ask for the consignment note. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Common questions in Tinkers Cross
Do you cover small places like Tinkers Cross?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
My garage in Tinkers Cross has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
How long will the job take?
A single garage is generally a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
