FAQs for Bentworth
Are garage roofs in Bentworth usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Bentworth and the area around Alton station?
Yes, we cover Bentworth and the area towards Alton station, about 3.5 miles east.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is usually needed.
Can the roof be overclad?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Do not pressure-wash it first.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Responsibilities for owners
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
What it might be made of
Gutters and downpipes
They’re removed whole where possible.
Wall panels
Walls come down the same way.

Choosing the right option
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the roof is fragile, so there is a serious falls risk too. Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
