Set-up
The contractor marks out a work area, puts up scaffold or an access platform, sets out waste bags and a skip or vehicle, and puts on protective clothing and masks.
Taking the sheets down
Sheets are wetted, unscrewed rather than broken, lowered carefully and wrapped. Fixings are collected and bagged.
Waste
Wrapped sheets are labelled and taken by a registered carrier to a licensed site. You should receive paperwork afterwards.
Clean-up
The area is cleaned with controlled methods and the contractor checks it before the cordon is removed.
Your part
- Keep children and pets away
- Close windows nearby
- Move cars and garden items
- Keep gates and access clear
