Asbestos garage roof removal in Bennett End
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Bennett End. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. People often contact us about lean-to roofs and garage conversions, involving bargeboards, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets.
Rural garages near Bennett End are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Helpful guides
Responsibilities for owners
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
If your business premises in Bennett End were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Bennett End questions
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Could my house in Bennett End contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How do I get a quote?
Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Doing it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Asbestos waste cannot 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.
