Ashford: For rented homes with garages close to Ashford Surrey station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it. Across Ashford, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, often with cement roofs. We plan garage roof jobs in Ashford for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.
Weighing up your options
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed.

Your questions about garage roof removal in TW15
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
