Asbestos garage roof removal for Netley Marsh properties

Garage roof removal in Netley Marsh normally includes the sheets, ridge pieces, fixings and any asbestos cement gutters and downpipes, wrapped and labelled ready for disposal. Whether it’s double garages and sheet garages, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, ridge pieces and cement gutters and more.

In a village like Netley Marsh, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Netley Marsh: your questions answered

Do you cover small places like Netley Marsh?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Is asbestos common in Netley Marsh homes?

Any home in Netley Marsh built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Can you remove the whole garage?

We can remove cement wall panels too. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.

Is garage roof removal licensed work?

Typically not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.

Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?

It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.

Looking after things afterwards

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

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Let neighbours know beforehand
  • Keep the consignment note afterwards
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Photos of the garage and the way in help

Things not to do

Keep weight off the roof.

If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.

What happens

We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. We begin by confirming exactly what we are doing, so there’s no confusion. In December, it’s dark in Netley Marsh by about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Give us the size of the garage and the access
  2. We check the roof material first
  3. We quote and book a date around your roofer
  4. The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Dig out previous surveys
  • Clear the way to the work area
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive

Doing it yourself?

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

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.
