Your questions about garage roof removal in South Gorley
Are garage roofs in South Gorley typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do older homes in South Gorley have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in South Gorley
Cracked or broken sheets let water in, and repairs on old sheets rarely last long.
These are some of the things we deal with in South Gorley:
- Sheet garages
- Pieces of broken roof
- Garages in a row or block
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
Older houses in South Gorley, near Church of the Holy Ascension or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, often with cement roofs.
What your quote should include
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- How fibres will be kept down
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
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.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
What it might be made of
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are generally asbestos cement too.
Gutters and downpipes
Cement gutters and downpipes are common.
Duty holders and landlords in South Gorley
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in South Gorley, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
After we have finished in South Gorley
Share the paperwork with your builder.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Give us a rough size
- Tell us about parking and access
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
