Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Framfield
Do you work near Uckfield station?
Yes. Uckfield station is about 1.6 miles west of Framfield, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Framfield homes?
If your home in Framfield was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
For landlords, agents and businesses
For managing agents and freeholders in Framfield, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.

If asbestos stays in the building:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Give us a rough size
Avoid these
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
