Asbestos garage roof removal near Wootton

Asbestos garage roof removal in Wootton

Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you can’t be certain by looking. Whether it’s garages being knocked down and block garages, we cover cement gutters, downpipes and corrugated roof sheets.

Garages around Wootton may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Common questions in Wootton

Do you come out to small villages like Wootton?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Could my house in Wootton contain asbestos?

Any home in Wootton built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

What does licensed work mean?

Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

When can you start?

It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.

How can I get a price?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

How it works

Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, ready for disposal at a permitted site. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions. In December, it’s dark in Wootton by about 4:05pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
  2. We confirm the material, testing if needed
  3. You get a written quote
  4. We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Getting a price

Each job is priced individually. Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 to get started.

Can I do it myself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

After we have finished in Wootton

The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Let neighbours know beforehand
  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work
  • Photos of the garage and the way in help

What to avoid

Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

What it costs

What drives the price:

  • How much waste there is
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • The size of the job
  • Travel and parking

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

What to photograph

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • A rough size or measurement
  • How we’d reach it
  • An overall view
  • The parking area

You will get a written quote. Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details.
