Asbestos garage roof removal in Dane Hill
Should you do it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Asbestos garage roof removal near Dane Hill
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Dane Hill. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. Whether it’s garages in a row or block and sheet garages, we deal with ridge pieces, downpipes and cement gutters.
Rural garages near Dane Hill are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

Common questions in Dane Hill
Do you work near Heyford station?
Yes. Heyford station is about 3 miles south of Dane Hill, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Dane Hill homes?
Any home in Dane Hill 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.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.

Duty holders and landlords in Dane Hill
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
