About our asbestos garage roof removal in Stanford in the Vale
Many garages built before 2000, in Stanford in the Vale and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. Typical jobs include storm-damaged sheets and lean-tos and carports, involving downpipes, bargeboards and ridge pieces.
In a smaller place like Stanford in the Vale, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

For landlords, agents and businesses
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
If your business premises in Stanford in the Vale were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Your options compared
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Stanford in the Vale: your questions answered
My garage in Stanford in the Vale 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.
Do older homes in Stanford in the Vale have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Stanford in the Vale can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, but it must still be done properly.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
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.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
