Asbestos garage roof removal for Greywell properties

In a village like Greywell, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Greywell: your questions answered
Do you come out to small villages like Greywell?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Are garage roofs in Greywell generally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Where do the sheets go?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Typically, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, but it must still be done properly.
For businesses and landlords in Greywell
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
What we deal with in Greywell
Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so many garages across Hampshire still have them.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Double garages
- Broken sheets after high winds
In Greywell, many garages and sheds were added decades ago.
Before booking anyone
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- What paperwork you get
Afterwards
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.
Some practical advice:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Tell us about parking and access
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Don’ts
Never cut or break the sheets.

The process

- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
