Need garage roof removal in Round Street?
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Round Street must 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.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Round Street
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Round Street tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is usually the start of a new roof or conversion. Typical jobs include prefab garages with cement walls and broken sheets after high winds, including ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and bargeboards.
Rural garages near Round Street are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Round Street
Is asbestos common in Round Street homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Round Street may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work near Sole Street station?
Yes. Sole Street station is about 0.6 miles south of Round Street, and we cover both.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Do you cover Round Street?
Yes. We cover Round Street and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
