Helpful guides
DIY and asbestos
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Materials, one by one
Wall panels
Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.
Gutters and downpipes
We take them down in whole lengths.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
The scope of garage roof removal
Some limits to bear in mind:
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job

Eynsford: your questions answered
My garage in Eynsford has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover small places like Eynsford?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Normally not: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
