How asbestos garage roof removal works in Little Sandhurst
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. People often contact us about garages due for demolition and garages before a new roof or conversion, including cement gutters, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets.
In a smaller place like Little Sandhurst, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

FAQs for Little Sandhurst
Do older homes in Little Sandhurst have asbestos?
If your home in Little Sandhurst was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Little Sandhurst from London?
We cover Little Sandhurst, about 32 miles from central London.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
