Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Durley questions
Could my house in Durley contain asbestos?
If your home in Durley was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Are garage roofs in Durley generally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Options to consider in Durley
Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; cracks, leaks or a conversion typically mean removal. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
What happens next
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
Keeping things safe:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep pets and children inside
- Plan the new roof before removal
Things not to do
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
