Wall panels
Some garages have cement wall panels as well.
Can I do it myself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Standen: your questions answered
My garage in Standen has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Is asbestos common in Standen homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Do you work in Standen?
Yes. We cover Standen and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.

Responsibilities for owners
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
After we have finished in Standen
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
Keeping things safe:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep pets and children inside
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Things not to do
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
The process
Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and keep the area clear of everyone else. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. In December, it’s dark in Standen by about 3:50pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

- We check it’s asbestos cement
- You get a written quote
- On the day we wet, unfix and lower the sheets whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken away, and you get the consignment note
How to prepare

- Warn neighbours if needed
