Asbestos removal in Aldershot
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, because the method depends on the material. Typical jobs include garage roofs and whole garages and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, involving flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and water tanks.
Homes and small businesses in towns and villages like Aldershot may have cement roofs and outbuildings that need removing before work. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.
