After the job
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- File the waste paperwork
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Don’ts
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Clifton Reynes: your questions answered
How far is Clifton Reynes from London?
We cover Clifton Reynes, about 52 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Clifton Reynes have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Clifton Reynes can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
What we deal with in Clifton Reynes

Can I do it myself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
