How asbestos garage roof removal works in Snoll Hatch

Helpful guides

- Give us a rough size
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
Things not to do
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
For landlords, agents and businesses
If you run a business from older premises in Snoll Hatch, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Snoll Hatch, 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.
Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Weighing up your options
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the roof is fragile, so there’s a serious falls risk too. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Why us?
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Work done to the regulations
- Clear written quotes
- Identify first, remove only when needed
