Peasmarsh questions
Do you come out to small villages like Peasmarsh?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
My garage in Peasmarsh has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

What we deal with
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Bargeboards
- Ridge pieces
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Roof felt
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
A closer look at the materials
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
Wall panels
Some garages have cement wall panels as well.
What affects the price in Peasmarsh
What changes the cost:
- How many samples are needed
- Parking and access charges
- Material and condition
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
What to photograph
The most useful photos are:
- An overall view
- Labels, if any
- The parking area
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
What happens next
Keep the consignment note with your property records: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.
A few practical points:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Tell us about parking and access
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Give us a rough size
Avoid these
Keep weight off the roof.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
What happens
Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then take the waste away. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first. In December, it’s dark in Peasmarsh by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- We check the roof material first
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
Getting ready
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
- Find any old asbestos reports
- Don’t disturb the material before we get there

Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
