About our asbestos garage roof removal in North Gorley
If you are not sure your garage roof in North Gorley is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Typical materials include corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and cement wall panels, and typical jobs are garages before a new roof or conversion and double garages.
Rural garages near North Gorley are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:
- What the material is and its state
- How easy it is to reach
- Travel and parking
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

North Gorley questions
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover small places like North Gorley?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
In most cases, no: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Typically, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Send us some photos.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in North Gorley

- Garages in a row or block
- Lean-to roofs
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Double garages
Properties near Blashford Lakes may have outbuildings as well as a garage.
What to look for in a quote
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- How fibres will be kept down
- VAT, clearly stated
DIY and asbestos
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.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
