Asbestos garage roof removal in Nash
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Typical materials include bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes, and typical jobs are broken sheets after high winds and block garages.
Garages around Nash may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Nash: your questions answered
Do you work near Adisham station?
Yes. Adisham station is about 3.7 miles south-west of Nash, and we cover both.
Could my house in Nash contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.
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.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
The process
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions. Late-December sunset in Nash is about 3:50pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

Things not to do
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Nash
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
In older properties, we often see:
- Lean-to roofs
- Garages due for demolition
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Single garages
Older houses in Nash, near Elmstone Church or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.
