For landlords, agents and businesses
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Wallend must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Options to consider in Wallend
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the roof is fragile, so there’s a serious falls risk too. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Why people choose us
- Clear advice on your options
- Records for your files

Common questions in Wallend
Can you work in Wallend with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you work near Barking station?
Yes, we cover Wallend and the area towards Barking station, about 0.9 miles north-east.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Do you cover Wallend?
We do: Wallend is within the area we cover in Greater London. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
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.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Wallend
Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
People generally contact us about one of these:
- Garage blocks
- Garages due for demolition
- Garage conversions
- Old, cracked sheets
For rented homes with garages close to Barking station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
