Common questions in Sandy Balls
Are garage roofs in Sandy Balls usually asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Could my house in Sandy Balls contain asbestos?
If your home in Sandy Balls was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
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.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Responsibilities for owners
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 Sandy Balls, 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.
Where asbestos turns up
Cracked or broken sheets let water in, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Concrete-panel garages
- Garages in a row or block
- Single and double garage roofs
Across Sandy Balls, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, often with cement roofs.
Questions to ask before you book
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- What category of work it is
- The documents you will receive
- How fibres will be kept down
DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
