Upper Heyford: your questions answered
My garage in Upper Heyford has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do older homes in Upper Heyford have asbestos?
If your home in Upper Heyford was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with paperwork for your records.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
For managing agents and freeholders in Upper Heyford, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Where asbestos turns up
Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
Typical jobs in Upper Heyford include:
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Carport roofs
- Garages due a new roof
- Roofs to clear before demolition
If you let a house with a garage near Heyford station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.
