About asbestos garage roof removal in the Isle of Wight

You can’t stand on an asbestos cement roof: they will not take a person’s weight. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. We often deal with downpipes, cement wall panels and ridge pieces, and typical jobs are garages due for demolition and garages due a new roof.

We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves.

Garage roof removal in the Isle of Wight

From Newport, Ryde and Cowes to its villages, the Isle of Wight has many older garages with cement roofs. In towns they’re often in blocks; in villages, alongside outbuildings. Around 116 places in the Isle of Wight are close to the coast, so outdoor roof work there is planned around the wind.

Newport: Properties near Briddlesford Nature Reserve may have outbuildings as well as a garage, so it can make sense to do them at once. Garages on busy roads like the A3020 and A3054 need loading planned in advance. In December, it’s dark in Newport by about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

Materials, one by one

Fixings

Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.

Corrugated sheets

The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.

Limits to be aware of

What’s in and what’s out:

Re-roofing is normally separate
If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor

For landlords, agents and businesses

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Which option is right?

Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor.

Questions to ask before booking

Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
Which areas and materials are covered
Any exclusions
How the work will be done, and the controls used

Where asbestos turns up

Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.

These come up again and again:

Sheet garages
Storm-damaged sheets
Block garages
Garages before a new roof or conversion

Common questions in the Isle of Wight

Can you help a business or landlord?

We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?

It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.

How do I get a quote?

Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
