Asbestos garage roof removal near Lions Green

How asbestos garage roof removal works in Lions Green

Removing cement roof sheets is normally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. We often deal with ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters, and typical jobs are single garages and brittle, leaking roofs.

Rural garages near Lions 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.

FAQs for Lions Green

Do you cover Lions Green from London?

We cover Lions Green, about 41 miles from central London.

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Does someone need to be there?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

Do you work in Lions Green?

Yes, Lions Green is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

How do I get a quote?

Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

What happens next

If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.

A few practical points:

  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Photos of the garage and the way in help
  • Book your roofer in advance
  • Keep pets and children inside

Avoid these

Keep weight off the roof.

Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.

Prices and what affects them

What changes the cost:

  • Travel and parking
  • What the material is and its state
  • The quantity or area
  • The category of work

Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Photos that help

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • Labels, if any
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
  • Street parking nearby
  • Damaged areas

If you have a survey or test result, include it when you call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form; it helps us quote accurately.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Can I do it myself?

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
