Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Materials we deal with
Wall panels
Some garages have cement wall panels as well.
Gutters and downpipes
Older garages often have cement gutters and downpipes.
Why people call us in Northiam
Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.
Typical jobs in Northiam include:
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Concrete-panel garages
- Single and double garage roofs
- Garages being knocked down
Garages on busy roads like the A268 need loading planned in advance.
Before booking anyone
- Which areas and materials are covered
- The documents you will receive
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Looking after things afterwards
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.
After we have finished:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- File the waste paperwork
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Tell us about parking and access
Don’ts
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Keep weight off the roof.

Northiam: your questions answered
How far is Northiam from London?
Northiam is about 46 miles from central London, well within our area.
My garage in Northiam has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is typically quick once we are set up.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
