Asbestos garage roof removal in Nursted

About our asbestos garage roof removal in Nursted

If you are not sure your garage roof in Nursted is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you can’t be certain by looking. Whether it’s block garages and prefab garages with cement walls, we deal with cement wall panels, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets.

Rural garages near Nursted are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Which option is right?

Removal first, then the new roof, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

How we work

If the weather turns windy or very wet, we may pause or reschedule, for safety. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. Late-December sunset in Nursted is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
  2. We check the roof material first
  3. We quote and book a date around your roofer
  4. We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Make sure we can get to the area
  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone

What happens next

Keep the consignment note with your property records: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.

Going forward:

  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof
  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Keep pets and children inside

Avoid these

Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.

Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Materials, one by one

Wall panels

Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.

Corrugated sheets

Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. We wet them and lower them whole.

Common questions in Nursted

Is asbestos common in Nursted homes?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Nursted may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you work near Petersfield station?

Yes. Petersfield station is about 1.8 miles north-west of Nursted, and we cover both.

What if my house is newer?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Where do the sheets go?

They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

DIY and asbestos

Asbestos waste can’t 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 advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Nursted

Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across Hampshire.

These come up again and again:

  • Single and double garage roofs
  • Brittle, leaking roofs
  • Garage conversions
  • Concrete-panel garages

For rented homes with garages close to Petersfield station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.
