Asbestos garage roof removal in Ashley

About our asbestos garage roof removal in Ashley

Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so have the replacement roof planned first. Mention your plans when you get in touch. From brittle, leaking roofs and block garages, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and bargeboards and more.

In a smaller place like Ashley, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, so access is generally simple to plan. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Duty holders and landlords in Ashley

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

If your business premises in Ashley were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Can I do it myself?

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

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Where asbestos turns up

Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across Hampshire.

These are some of the things we deal with in Ashley:

  • Garages being knocked down
  • Prefab garages with cement walls
  • Block garages
  • Pieces of broken roof

If you’re a landlord with garages near New Milton station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
  • The documents you will receive
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • How the work will be done, and the controls used

What you get

  • Quotes that spell out the scope
  • Houses, flats and business premises
  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note

Cement gutters and downpipes are common.

How we work

After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then take the waste away. The work area is kept clear while we’re working. In December, it’s dark in Ashley by about 4:05pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
  2. We check the roof material first
  3. You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
  4. We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork

How to prepare

  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
  • Mention any damage before we arrive
  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
