About our asbestos garage roof removal in Kingsash
If you’re not sure your garage roof in Kingsash is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you can’t be certain by looking. Whether it’s garages in a row or block and carport roofs, we cover corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and ridge pieces and more.
Garages around Kingsash 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.

Materials, one by one
Corrugated sheets
The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Good to know
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job

What we deal with
- Roof felt
- Fixings and bolts
- Ridge pieces
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
What we deal with in Kingsash
Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, so they become brittle.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Garages being knocked down
- Pieces of broken roof
- Lean-to roofs
- Garages in a row or block
For rented homes with garages close to Wendover station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

For businesses and landlords in Kingsash
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Common questions in Kingsash
Are garage roofs in Kingsash typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work near Wendover station?
Yes, we cover Kingsash and the area towards Wendover station, about 2 miles north-west.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
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.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with paperwork for your records.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Generally not: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
