Asbestos garage roof removal for Nash Lee
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Nash Lee
Many garages built before 2000, in Nash Lee and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. Typical jobs include concrete-panel garages and pieces of broken roof, including bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.
Garages around Nash Lee 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.

FAQs for Nash Lee
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
How far is Nash Lee from London?
Nash Lee is about 35 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can sample it safely from the edge.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we deal with
- Roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bargeboards
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
- Ridge pieces

Where asbestos turns up
Cracked or broken sheets let water in, and repairs on old sheets rarely last long.
In older properties, we often see:
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Garages due a new roof
- Garages due for demolition
- Concrete-panel garages
If you are a landlord with garages near Stoke Mandeville station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
