Asbestos garage roof removal in Hardley
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Hardley
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is usually the start of a new roof or conversion. From carport roofs and broken sheets after high winds, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and bargeboards.
Garages around Hardley may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

Prices and what affects them
The cost depends on:
- How much there is
- How many samples are needed
- What the material is and its state

Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Does someone need to be there?

Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
