Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
What happens
Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, then loaded for disposal. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. We plan garage roof jobs in Rabbit's Cross for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, in June not until about 9:15pm.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it

Why people call us in Rabbit's Cross
Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across Kent.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Single and double garage roofs
- Old, cracked sheets
- Garages due a new roof
- Garages being knocked down
If you let a house with a garage near Staplehurst station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.
Questions to ask before booking
- What category of work it is
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
For businesses and landlords in Rabbit's Cross
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
After the job
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Avoid these
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Rabbit's Cross: your questions answered
How far is Rabbit's Cross from London?
Rabbit's Cross is about 35 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work on properties in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
