What to check before you book

Asbestos garage roof removal near Brownbread Street

Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. Typical jobs include pieces of broken roof and concrete-panel garages, including downpipes, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets.

In a village like Brownbread Street, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

What affects the price in Brownbread Street

When we quote, we look at:

  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • The size of the job
  • The type of material and its condition
  • Parking and access charges

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Helping us quote

The most useful photos are:

  • A photo of the whole area
  • Where we could park
  • A clear close-up
  • Damaged areas

Each job is priced individually. Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 to get started.

Doing it yourself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Options to consider in Brownbread Street

Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Ask for the waste paperwork. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Brownbread Street: your questions answered

My garage in Brownbread Street has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.

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.

Do you work in Brownbread Street?

Yes, we do: Brownbread Street is within the area we cover in East Sussex. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?

Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.
