Asbestos garage roof removal near Hamble-le-Rice

Materials, one by one

Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.

Wall panels

Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.

How asbestos garage roof removal works in Hamble-le-Rice

Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. People often contact us about prefab garages with cement walls and garages due for demolition, involving ridge pieces, bargeboards and corrugated roof sheets.

Homes in places like Hamble-le-Rice often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs, which can be removed together. We only recommend work that’s needed, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Hamble-le-Rice questions

Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you cover Hamble-le-Rice from London?

Hamble-le-Rice is about 69 miles from central London, well within our area.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

Where do the sheets go?

They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.

Will I get the price in writing?

Always: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

What does licensed work mean?

Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Duty holders and landlords in Hamble-le-Rice

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Hamble-le-Rice must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

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

Can I do it myself?

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
