Asbestos garage roof removal near Scaynes Hill
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. From single garages and garages due a new roof, we cover cement wall panels, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters and more.
In areas like Scaynes Hill, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Scaynes Hill: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Scaynes Hill homes?
Any home in Scaynes Hill built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Scaynes Hill?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
Do you cover Scaynes Hill?
Yes, Scaynes Hill is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
The process
Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then take the waste away. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions.

Helpful guides
What it might be made of
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
Ridge pieces
They’re removed with the sheets and wrapped together.
Duty holders and landlords in Scaynes Hill
If your business premises in Scaynes Hill were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Which option is right?
Does the roof have to come off? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; cracks, leaks or a conversion typically mean removal. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
