Questions from Aldershot
Do older homes in Aldershot have asbestos?
Any home in Aldershot built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Aldershot from London?
We cover Aldershot, about 34 miles from central London.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Where asbestos turns up
Garage roofs were often made of asbestos cement until 1999, so they’re common across Hampshire.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Garages in a row or block
- Single garages
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Prefab garages with cement walls
Across Aldershot, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, often with cement roofs.
Before you book anyone
- If the price includes VAT
- The method and controls
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- Where the waste goes, with paperwork
After we have finished in Aldershot
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.
Once we are done:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- File the waste paperwork
- Book your roofer in advance
Things not to do
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
The process
Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we’ll do before we start. We plan garage roof jobs in Aldershot for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.
- Describe the garage
- We work out how to reach the roof safely
- We time it around your roofer
- We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
- We clean up and send the paperwork
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking and access
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive

DIY and asbestos
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
What’s included, and what is not
Before you book, note that:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Common materials
- Ridge pieces
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bargeboards
- Fixings and bolts
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
- Cement wall panels
Choosing the right option
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. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.
Why us?
- Clear written quotes
- Reports and results you can share
- Covering London and the South East
- No removal until we know what it is
