Asbestos garage roof removal near Munstead Heath
Removing cement roof sheets is generally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. From garages being knocked down and garages before a new roof or conversion, we deal with downpipes, ridge pieces and cement gutters.
Garages around Munstead Heath may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.

Typically, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we will advise.
