Asbestos garage roof removal near Puckpool
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is generally the start of a new roof or conversion. People often contact us about pieces of broken roof and brittle, leaking roofs, including bargeboards, ridge pieces and cement gutters.
In a village like Puckpool, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

A closer look at the materials
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are typically asbestos cement too.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Puckpool
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Lean-to roofs
- Garages due a new roof
- Concrete-panel garages
Older houses in Puckpool, near St John's Church or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, often with cement roofs.

Puckpool: your questions answered
Do you come out to small villages like Puckpool?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Puckpool contain asbestos?
If your home in Puckpool was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Responsibilities for owners
If you manage or own a block in Puckpool, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Puckpool, 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.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
