Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Pevensey
Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across East Sussex.
In older properties, we often see:
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Old, cracked sheets
- Single and double garage roofs
- Sheet garages
In Pevensey, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, often with cement roofs.
Questions to ask before booking
- VAT, clearly stated
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
For landlords, agents and businesses
If your business premises in Pevensey were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Questions from Pevensey
My garage in Pevensey 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.
Do you work near Pevensey Bay station?
Yes. Pevensey Bay station is close to the centre of Pevensey, and we cover the whole area.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, but most single garages are a short job once set up.

Afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- File the waste paperwork
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Keep weight off the roof.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
