Furner's Green questions
Are garage roofs in Furner's Green generally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Is asbestos common in Furner's Green homes?
If your home in Furner's Green was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is generally a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Why people call us in Furner's Green
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.

- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Single garages
- Prefab garages with cement walls

Across Furner's Green, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000.
