Asbestos garage roof removal in South Ham
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around South Ham. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. Typical jobs include pieces of broken roof and lean-tos and carports, including cement wall panels, cement gutters and bargeboards.
Homes in towns and villages like South Ham often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs, which can be removed together. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

For businesses and landlords in South Ham
If your business premises in South Ham were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Good to know
The usual limits are:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Different materials need a different approach

Common materials
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
- Gutters and downpipes
- Fixings and bolts
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that is much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Common questions in South Ham
How far is South Ham from London?
South Ham is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work near Basingstoke station?
Yes. Basingstoke station is about 1.2 miles north-east of South Ham, and we cover both.
Is my garage roof in South Ham asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. A sample test will tell you.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.

We base our quote on:
