What it might be made of
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which is sometimes tested too.
Fixings
Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.
What happens next
Keep the consignment note with your property records: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.
Staying safe afterwards:
- File the waste paperwork
- Give us a rough size
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
Things not to do
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Should you do it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
What we deal with in Billingshurst
Cracked or broken sheets let water in, and repairs on old sheets rarely last long.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Concrete-panel garages
- Lean-tos and carports
If you are a landlord with garages near Billingshurst station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Questions from Billingshurst
Do you cover Billingshurst from London?
Billingshurst is about 36 miles from central London, well within our area.
Are garage roofs in Billingshurst normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is normally quick once we are set up.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, but it must still be done properly.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
