Asbestos garage roof removal for Plaitford Green
Common questions in Plaitford Green
My garage in Plaitford Green 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 cover small places like Plaitford Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Do you work in Plaitford Green?
We do: Plaitford Green is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
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.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always.
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Plaitford Green
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Typical jobs include brittle, leaking roofs and garages before a new roof or conversion, involving cement gutters, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets.
In places like Plaitford Green, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Plaitford Green must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
