Asbestos garage roof removal in Bar End
DIY and asbestos
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Asbestos garage roof removal for Bar End properties
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Typical materials include cement wall panels, cement gutters and bargeboards, and people generally contact us about garages being knocked down and block garages.
In areas like Bar End, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We only recommend work that is needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Common questions in Bar End
Could my house in Bar End contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Bar End from London?
Bar End is about 61 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.
