FAQs for Tiptoe
Do you cover Tiptoe and the area around Sway station?
Yes, we cover Tiptoe and the area towards Sway station, about 1 mile north-east.
Is asbestos common in Tiptoe homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, though a single garage is typically quick once we are set up.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
What happens
After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then load the wrapped waste. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing, so there’s no confusion. We plan garage roof jobs in Tiptoe for daylight: sunset is about 4:05pm in December and about 9:25pm in June.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We check the roof material first
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
Getting ready

Helpful guides
What it costs
Quotes vary because of:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Material and condition
- The survey scope
- Disposal costs
Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
Sending photos
When you send photos, these help most:
- Street parking nearby
- Labels, if any
- Approximate dimensions
- An overall view
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
What we do and do not cover
So you know what to expect:
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.
Materials we see
- Roof felt
- Fixings and bolts
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
- Ridge pieces
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Bargeboards
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
