Asbestos garage roof removal in Roxeth
HSE treats removing asbestos cement roof sheets as non-licensed work in most cases, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Whether it’s pieces of broken roof and garage blocks, we cover corrugated roof sheets, bargeboards and ridge pieces.
In London neighbourhoods like Roxeth, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

For businesses and landlords in Roxeth
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Roxeth, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Which option is right?
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
The scope of garage roof removal

Your questions about garage roof removal in Roxeth
Are garage roofs in Roxeth normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Roxeth and the area around Sudbury Hill Harrow station?
Yes, we cover Roxeth and the area towards Sudbury Hill Harrow station, about 0.8 miles south-east.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is generally a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed

Things not to do
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
