Duty holders and landlords in Great Stonar
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Why people call us in Great Stonar
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.

- Concrete-panel garages

For rented homes with garages close to Sandwich station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Questions from Great Stonar
Are garage roofs in Great Stonar typically asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Is asbestos common in Great Stonar homes?
Any home in Great Stonar built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Typically, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is normally quick once we are set up.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site.
The scope of garage roof removal
The usual limits are:
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.

Helpful guides
Doing it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
