- Let us know where we can park

Don’ts
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.

Common questions in Redlands
Do you cover Redlands and the area around Farnham station?
Yes. Farnham station is about 2.9 miles south-east of Redlands, and we cover both.
Do you cover small places like Redlands?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Good to know
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- High winds can delay roof work
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Ridge pieces
- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Fixings and bolts
Typical garage roof jobs in Redlands
Cracked or broken sheets let water in, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Lean-to roofs
- Garages due a new roof
- Pieces of broken roof
In Redlands, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

The process
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. In December, it’s dark in Redlands by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
