Asbestos help in Tyler's Hill

About our asbestos garage roof removal in Tyler's Hill
Removing cement roof sheets is generally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. People often contact us about garages before a new roof or conversion and garages due for demolition, involving ridge pieces, downpipes and cement wall panels.
In places like Tyler's Hill, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Questions from Tyler's Hill
My garage in Tyler's Hill has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually are not licensed.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, but most single garages are a short job once set up.
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.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
