DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Afterwards
The wrapped sheets go to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.
Keeping things safe:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
What to avoid
Never cut or break the sheets.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Otterbourne questions
Do you cover Otterbourne and the area around Shawford station?
Yes. Shawford station is about 1.1 miles north-east of Otterbourne, and we cover both.
Do you come out to small villages like Otterbourne?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
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.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
