Asbestos garage roof removal in Peasemore

Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is typically the start of a new roof or conversion. Typical jobs include brittle, leaking roofs and concrete-panel garages, including bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes.

In towns and villages like Peasemore, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Materials we deal with

Corrugated sheets

The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.

Gutters and downpipes

Older garages often have cement gutters and downpipes.

What affects the price in Peasemore

Prices vary with:

  • The size of the job
  • The type of material and its condition
  • The survey scope
  • Location, parking and any London charges

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Sending photos

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • Where we could park
  • Damaged areas
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • An idea of size

For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you’re planning. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

Looking after things afterwards

If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Send photos of the whole garage and the access
  • Tell us about parking and access

Avoid these

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

Where asbestos turns up

Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.

Typical jobs in Peasemore include:

  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Lean-tos and carports
  • Brittle, leaking roofs
  • Garages due a new roof

In Peasemore, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, often with cement roofs.

Questions to ask before booking

  • The method and controls
  • Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
  • What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
  • What is not included

Your options compared

Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

What you get

  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Across London and the South East
  • No removal until we know what it is

See our prices page and the cost guide.

Good to know

A few things to be aware of:

  • Re-roofing is normally separate
  • Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
  • Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Materials we see

  • Corrugated cement sheets
  • Bargeboards
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Cement wall panels
  • Fixings and bolts
  • Ridge pieces
  • Roof felt

For businesses and landlords in Peasemore

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Peasemore: your questions answered

Do you work on properties in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Are garage roofs in Peasemore usually asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

How long will the job take?

Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is generally quick once we’re set up.

Do you work on commercial premises?

We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

Is my garage roof in Peasemore 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.

Is garage roof removal licensed work?

In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, but it must still be done properly.

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.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

Generally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • 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
