Asbestos garage roof removal near Adisham

Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Common materials are cement wall panels, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets, and typical jobs are concrete-panel garages and lean-to roofs.

In towns and villages like Adisham, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Adisham questions

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do older homes in Adisham have asbestos?

Any home in Adisham built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Can you quote from photos?

Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

How long does it take to remove a garage roof?

A single garage is generally a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.

Do you take down the walls too?

We can remove cement wall panels too. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

What happens

We wear disposable coveralls and respirators throughout, and nobody else comes near. We begin by confirming exactly what we are doing, so there is no confusion. Late-December sunset in Adisham is about 3:50pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Describe the garage
  2. We work out how to reach the roof safely
  3. We time it around your roofer
  4. We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up and send the paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive

After the job

We clear up and check for fragments before we leave.

A few practical points:

  • Send photos of the whole garage and the access
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Book your roofer in advance
  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof

Things not to do

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

Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.

Materials we deal with

Corrugated sheets

Sheets are wrapped for disposal.

Ridge pieces

We take them off with the sheets.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Adisham

Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.

People generally contact us about one of these:

  • Single and double garage roofs
  • Old, cracked sheets
  • Broken sheets after high winds
  • Carport roofs

In Adisham, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

DIY and asbestos

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

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

Good to know

Worth knowing before booking:

  • If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
  • Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
  • High winds can delay roof work

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Common materials

  • Fixings and bolts
  • Roof felt
  • Corrugated cement sheets

  • Bargeboards
  • Cement wall panels

Responsibilities for owners

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Adisham, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
