Responsibilities for owners
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
If your business premises in Offham were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Offham
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you cannot be certain by looking. Whether it’s storm-damaged sheets and block garages, we cover bargeboards, cement gutters and downpipes.
Garages around Offham may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Helpful guides
Afterwards
File the waste paperwork: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.
After we have finished:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Book your roofer in advance
Things not to do
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.

Common questions in Offham
Do you work near West Malling station?
Yes, we cover Offham and the area towards West Malling station, about 1.9 miles east.
My garage in Offham 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.
Is my garage roof in Offham asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can sample it safely from the edge.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.

- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
