For landlords, agents and businesses
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
If you manage or own a block in Newchapel, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Materials, one by one
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Fixings
Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which need careful clearing.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Garage blocks
- Single and double garage roofs
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
For rented homes with garages close to Dormans station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Newchapel questions
My garage in Newchapel has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you work in Newchapel?
Yes, we do: our area includes Newchapel and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
