How asbestos garage roof removal works in Frensham
Many garages built before 2000, in Frensham and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. Common materials are cement gutters, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets, and people generally contact us about garages in a row or block and garages before a new roof or conversion.
In a village like Frensham, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Frensham questions
Could my house in Frensham contain asbestos?
Any home in Frensham built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How far is Frensham from London?
We cover Frensham, about 38 miles from central London.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Size, access and condition decide, but most single garages are a short job once set up.
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.
Is my garage roof in Frensham asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Options to consider in Frensham
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

A closer look at the materials
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are generally asbestos cement too.
Corrugated sheets
Most garage roofs are corrugated cement sheets. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Step by step
Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, then loaded for disposal. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. In December, it’s dark in Frensham by about 4:00pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
