Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Litlington
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which need careful clearing.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Carport roofs
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Single and double garage roofs
For rented homes with garages close to Berwick (Sussex) station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Questions from Litlington
Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover Litlington from London?
Litlington is about 50 miles from central London, well within our area.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
