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.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Beenham: your questions answered

Do you cover small places like Beenham?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Are garage roofs in Beenham typically asbestos?

Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?

If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you can’t be sure by looking. We can test a sample.

What does licensed work mean?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.

Do you take down the walls too?

Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

Does someone need to be there?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Weighing up your options

Removal first, then the new roof, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

How we price garage roof removal

The cost depends on:

  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • The category of work
  • How many samples are needed
  • Parking and access charges

Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Photos that help

When you send photos, these help most:

  • Visible markings
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it

Why people call us in Beenham

  • Lean-tos and carports

Responsibilities for owners

For managing agents and freeholders in Beenham, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Looking after things afterwards

Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Keep pets and children inside
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Give us a rough size
  • File the waste paperwork

Don’ts

Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.

How it works

After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then load the wrapped waste. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on. Garage roof removal in Beenham is planned around daylight: sunset is about 4:00pm in December and about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Send photos of the garage and the roof
  2. We confirm the material, testing a sample if needed
  3. We quote for the removal and disposal
  4. On the day we wet, unfix and lower the sheets whole
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with paperwork

Getting ready

  • Ensure we can get to the area
  • Mention any damage before we arrive
  • Have any previous surveys or test results ready
