How asbestos garage roof removal works in Great Missenden
HSE treats removing asbestos cement roof sheets as non-licensed work in most cases, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Whether it’s garage blocks and pieces of broken roof, we cover downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels and more.
In a village like Great Missenden, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Questions from Great Missenden
Do you come out to small villages like Great Missenden?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Great Missenden from London?
We cover Great Missenden, about 30 miles from central London.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
