Asbestos garage roof removal for Boyatt Wood properties
HSE treats removing asbestos cement roof sheets as non-licensed work in most cases, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Typical jobs include old, cracked sheets and block garages, involving bargeboards, ridge pieces and downpipes.
In places like Boyatt Wood, many garages are detached and reached by a drive, so access is normally simple to plan. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.
