Weighing up your options
Removing the roof sheets 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. Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Avoid these
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
FAQs for Broad Tenterden
Do you cover Broad Tenterden from London?
We cover Broad Tenterden, about 46 miles from central London.
My garage in Broad Tenterden has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is usually needed.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Materials we deal with
Corrugated sheets
The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.
