For landlords, agents and businesses
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Limits to be aware of
To be clear about the scope:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.
Materials we see
- Roof felt
- Fixings and bolts
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
- Ridge pieces
Why people call us in Boughton Aluph

- Prefab garages with cement walls
Across Boughton Aluph, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, often with cement roofs.
What your quote should include
- Whether the job needs notifying
- The method and controls
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note
After the job
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
To avoid problems in future:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Book your roofer in advance
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
Don’ts
Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Weighing up your options
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
