How asbestos garage roof removal works in Red Rice
Many garages built before 2000, in Red Rice and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. We often deal with downpipes, ridge pieces and bargeboards, and people normally contact us about storm-damaged sheets and single and double garage roofs.
In a village like Red Rice, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Red Rice
Do you cover Red Rice and the area around Andover station?
Yes, we cover Red Rice and the area towards Andover station, about 2.6 miles north-east.
Do you come out to small villages like Red Rice?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is typically a short job, though access and condition affect it.
Duty holders and landlords in Red Rice
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Red Rice, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
