Questions from Lodsworth
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you come out to small villages like Lodsworth?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Lodsworth
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. We often deal with bargeboards, downpipes and cement wall panels, and people normally contact us about garages being knocked down and lean-to roofs.
Garages around Lodsworth may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Lodsworth
Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Double garages

- Pieces of broken roof
- Prefab garages with cement walls
Older houses in Lodsworth, near The Parish Church of St Peter or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000.

Prices and what affects them
What changes the cost:
- Licensed or non-licensed
- How much waste there is
- The quantity or area
- Location, parking and any London charges
There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Photos that help
Photos often save us a visit:
- How we’d reach it
- The parking area
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- A clear close-up
Every job is quoted in writing. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details, including any survey or test you already have.
What happens next
If you’re converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
Avoid these
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never cut or break the sheets.
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.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
How it works
Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, ready for disposal at a permitted site. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Lodsworth is about 4:00pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
