Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Garages being knocked down
- Single garages
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
Across Ellingham, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
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.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Ellingham, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
What affects the price in Ellingham

The scope of garage roof removal
What’s in and what’s out:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is generally a separate job
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Different materials need a different approach
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
Common materials
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
Choosing the right option
Removal first, then the new roof, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.
What you get
- Accredited laboratory results
- Domestic and commercial work
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Identify first, remove only when needed

After we’ve finished in Ellingham
We clear up and check for fragments.
To avoid problems in future:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Never cut or break the sheets.

Can I do it myself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Your questions about garage roof removal in Ellingham
My garage in Ellingham has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you work in Ellingham?
Yes. We cover Ellingham and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
How long will the job take?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, though a single garage is normally quick once we’re set up.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
