Typical garage roof jobs in Gundleton

Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across Hampshire.

People generally contact us about one of these:

  • Sheet garages
  • Broken sheets after high winds
  • Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
  • Block garages

Near open spaces such as Red Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once.

Responsibilities for owners

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Options to consider in Gundleton

Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the roof is fragile, so there’s a serious falls risk too. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

What you get

  • Records for your files
  • No removal until we know what it is
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Across London and the South East

Your questions about garage roof removal in Gundleton

Do older homes in Gundleton have asbestos?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover small places like Gundleton?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area in the job.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

Do you take down the walls too?

Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
