Does the roof have to come off? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

FAQs for Westbourne Green
Could my house in Westbourne Green contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you work in Westbourne Green with London’s parking rules?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. We can test a sample.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
The process
After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then take the waste away. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so please keep children and pets away. In December, it’s dark in Westbourne Green by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
