Weighing up your options

Does the roof have to come off? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; cracks, leaks or a conversion generally mean removal. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

Why us?

  • Clear written quotes
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork

About our asbestos garage roof removal in Cheriton

Single, double and block garages, lean-tos and carports in Cheriton all have roofs like these. Photos and rough sizes help us quote. People often contact us about cracked, mossy or leaking roofs and garages in a row or block, involving cement gutters, bargeboards and cement wall panels.

Garages around Cheriton may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

The process

Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then take the waste away. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. We plan garage roof jobs in Cheriton for daylight: sunset is about 4:00pm in December and about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
  2. We confirm the material, testing if needed
  3. You get a written quote
  4. The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork

DIY and asbestos

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

What affects the price in Cheriton

When we quote, we look at:

  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Material and condition
  • The quantity or area
  • The survey scope

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

Photos that help

Helpful photos:

  • Cracks or breaks
  • Labels, if any
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • Street parking nearby

You will get a written quote. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page with the details, including any survey or test you already have.

For businesses and landlords in Cheriton

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

A closer look at the materials

Fixings

The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.

Gutters and downpipes

We take them down in whole lengths.

What we deal with in Cheriton

Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so many garages across Hampshire still have them.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Broken sheets after high winds
  • Garages before a new roof or conversion
  • Single and double garage roofs
  • Roofs to clear before demolition

Near open spaces such as Shutts Copse, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.

What to look for in a quote

  • What is not included
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • Waste disposal and the consignment note
  • VAT, clearly stated

Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Cheriton

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

Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

How far is Cheriton from London?

Cheriton is about 56 miles from central London, well within our area.

How long will the job take?

Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.

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

Usually not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.

How can I get a price?

Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.

Do you take down the walls too?

We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
