HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which need careful clearing.

- Carport roofs
- Garages in a row or block
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Roofs to clear before demolition
If you are a landlord with garages near Polegate station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

FAQs for Jevington
Is asbestos common in Jevington homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Jevington from London?
We cover Jevington, about 51 miles from central London.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
How do I get a quote?
Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
In most cases, no: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
