Responsibilities for owners
If you run a business from older premises in Ashley Heath, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
After the job
File the waste paperwork: it’s useful when you sell.
After we’ve finished:
- Give us a rough size
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Keep weight off the roof.
Limits to be aware of
A few things to be aware of:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is usually a separate job
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
Common materials
- Gutters and downpipes
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Ridge pieces
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
Ashley Heath: your questions answered
My garage in Ashley Heath has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Do not pressure-wash it first.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Your options compared
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
