Asbestos garage roof removal in Welling
Removing cement roof sheets is normally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Typical jobs include brittle, leaking roofs and concrete-panel garages, involving bargeboards, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets.
In parts of London like Welling, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, so check who owns the block. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Welling: your questions answered
Do you work near Welling station?
Yes. Welling station is about 0.5 miles north-west of Welling, and we cover both.
Are garage roofs in Welling typically asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Generally not: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Do you work in Welling?
Yes, we do: Welling is within the area we cover in Greater London. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
