Don’ts
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Asbestos garage roof removal in Easington
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. From broken sheets after high winds and garages due for demolition, we deal with ridge pieces, cement gutters and downpipes.
Rural garages near Easington are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Questions from Easington
Do you come out to small villages like Easington?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is asbestos common in Easington homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
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.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically are not licensed.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Normally, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
Good to know
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.
Common materials
- Bargeboards

Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
