Asbestos garage roof removal near Hound Green
Common questions in Hound Green
Are garage roofs in Hound Green typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Could my house in Hound Green contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Hound Green can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Hound Green?
Yes, Hound Green is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Typically not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is typically a short job, though access and condition affect it.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Hound Green
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is typically the start of a new roof or conversion. Common materials are ridge pieces, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets, and people normally contact us about garages due for demolition and old, cracked sheets.
Rural garages near Hound Green are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
