About our asbestos garage roof removal in Ingrams Green
Removing cement roof sheets is normally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. From cracked, mossy or leaking roofs and prefab garages with cement walls, we cover cement wall panels, bargeboards and downpipes and more.
Rural garages near Ingrams Green are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Questions from Ingrams Green
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Is asbestos common in Ingrams Green homes?
If your home in Ingrams Green was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
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.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
