Asbestos garage roof removal for Binfield Heath properties
HSE treats removing asbestos cement roof sheets as non-licensed work in most cases, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. Common materials are bargeboards, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets, and typical jobs are garages before a new roof or conversion and double garages.
Rural garages near Binfield Heath are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Questions from Binfield Heath
Do you cover Binfield Heath from London?
Binfield Heath is about 36 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Binfield Heath contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is normally quick once we’re set up.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
