How asbestos garage roof removal works in Peel Common
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. People often contact us about garage blocks and lean-to roofs, including corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and ridge pieces.
Rural garages near Peel Common are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Which option is right?
DIY garage roof removal? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and there is a real risk of falling through the roof. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

See how we price jobs and our cost guide.
Can I do it myself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. 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.
The process
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so please keep children and pets away. Late-December sunset in Peel Common is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- We confirm the material, testing if needed
- You get a written quote
- The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork
Preparing for the visit
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Clear the way to the work area

Peel Common: your questions answered
Do you work near Fareham station?
Yes. Fareham station is about 2 miles north of Peel Common, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Peel Common homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally aren’t licensed.
How long will the job take?
A single garage is generally a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Responsibilities for owners
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Peel Common, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
