How asbestos garage roof removal works in East Hampnett

Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around East Hampnett. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. Typical materials include bargeboards, ridge pieces and cement gutters, and typical jobs are garage conversions and garages in a row or block.

Garages around East Hampnett may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

East Hampnett questions

Do you come out to small villages like East Hampnett?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

How far is East Hampnett from London?

East Hampnett is about 52 miles from central London, well within our area.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

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.

Could my home contain asbestos?

You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Is garage roof removal licensed work?

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

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

DIY and asbestos

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
