How far is Sibford Ferris from London?
We cover Sibford Ferris, about 70 miles from central London.
Are garage roofs in Sibford Ferris usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Good to know
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- High winds can delay roof work
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
