Why people call us in Goring-by-Sea
Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Garages in a row or block
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Lean-to roofs
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
Near open spaces such as Highdown Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.

Common questions in Goring-by-Sea
My garage in Goring-by-Sea has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
How far is Goring-by-Sea from London?
We cover Goring-by-Sea, about 50 miles from central London.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Do you work in flats?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
Is my garage roof in Goring-by-Sea asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
Weighing up your options

Helpful guides
DIY and asbestos
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
After the job
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Never cut or break the sheets.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
