Asbestos garage roof removal near Bramshaw
Bramshaw: your questions answered
Are garage roofs in Bramshaw normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Is asbestos common in Bramshaw homes?
Any home in Bramshaw built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
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.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Is my garage roof in Bramshaw asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Bramshaw
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Bramshaw. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. People often contact us about garages before a new roof or conversion and garages due for demolition, including cement gutters, ridge pieces and bargeboards.
In a village like Bramshaw, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

A closer look at the materials
Ridge pieces
The ridge pieces are often the same material.
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which is sometimes tested too.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Doing it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
