About our asbestos garage roof removal in Fawley
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they won’t take a person’s weight. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Typical materials include cement gutters, bargeboards and corrugated roof sheets, and typical jobs are garages due for demolition and single and double garage roofs.
In areas like Fawley, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Don’ts

Does the roof have to come off? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; cracks, leaks or a conversion normally mean removal. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Fawley
Do older homes in Fawley have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Fawley can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always.
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 work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Typical garage roof jobs in Fawley
