Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Madley Park

Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:

  • Sheet garages
  • Garage conversions
  • Single garages
  • Roofs to clear before demolition

Older houses in Madley Park, near Church of Holy Trinity or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000.

What your quote should include

  • Suitable insurance for the work
  • Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
  • Any exclusions
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Asbestos garage roof removal for Madley Park properties

The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. Typical materials include corrugated roof sheets, bargeboards and ridge pieces, and typical jobs are cracked, mossy or leaking roofs and block garages.

In Madley Park, a garage may come with sheds or lean-tos roofed the same way, which can be removed together. We only recommend work that’s needed.

Should you do it yourself?

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

A closer look at the materials

Gutters and downpipes

Older garages often have cement gutters and downpipes.

Ridge pieces

The ridge pieces are often the same material.

Options to consider in Madley Park

Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

What you get

  • Clear written quotes
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder

See our prices page or our cost guide.

How it works

Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, ready for disposal at a permitted site. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing. In December, it’s dark in Madley Park by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

  1. Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
  2. We confirm the material, testing if needed
  3. You get a written quote
  4. The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Keep the area clear of children and pets

Duty holders and landlords in Madley Park

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Looking after things afterwards

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

Keeping things safe:

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work
  • Book your roofer in advance
  • File the waste paperwork

Things not to do

Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

Limits to be aware of

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • Re-roofing is normally separate
  • Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
  • High winds can delay roof work

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

Common materials

  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Roof felt
  • Corrugated cement sheets
  • Bargeboards
  • Ridge pieces
  • Cement wall panels
  • Fixings and bolts

Madley Park: your questions answered

Are garage roofs in Madley Park generally asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Do you work near Combe station?

Yes, we cover Madley Park and the area towards Combe station, about 4.1 miles north-east.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.

Is garage roof removal licensed work?

Normally not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.

What does licensed work mean?

Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

What if my house is newer?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
