Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Send photos of the whole garage and the access

Some limits to bear in mind:

  • High winds can delay roof work

  2. We check the roof material first
  3. You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
  4. We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Helpful guides

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Hurst Green

Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Broken sheets after high winds
  • Garages due for demolition
  • Garages in a row or block
  • Lean-to roofs

Near open spaces such as Botley Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding.

Comparing quotes

  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • How fibres will be kept down
  • If the price includes VAT

Choosing an asbestos contractor

A closer look at the materials

Wall panels

Some garages have cement wall panels as well.

Fixings

The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

Duty holders and landlords in Hurst Green

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

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

What affects the price in Hurst Green

These are the main things that affect the price of garage roof removal:

  • The quantity or area

  • Licensed or non-licensed

Hurst Green questions

Do you come out to small villages like Hurst Green?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

My garage in Hurst Green has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

How quickly can you come out?

We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.

Do you cover Hurst Green?

Yes. We cover Hurst Green and the surrounding area as part of Surrey. Send us the postcode for a quote.

Do you take down the walls too?

We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.

Is my garage roof in Hurst Green asbestos?

If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you can’t be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.

Choosing the right option

Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
