Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Stanswood
We remove single and double garage roofs, garages in rows and blocks, lean-tos and carports across Stanswood. Photos and rough sizes help us quote. Common materials are downpipes, cement gutters and cement wall panels, and typical jobs are garage blocks and lean-to roofs.
Rural garages near Stanswood are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

After the job
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.
To avoid problems in future:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Let us know where we can park
- File the waste paperwork
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
Avoid these
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Your options compared
Paint or overclad instead? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. See our guide to repair, paint or replace. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Old, cracked sheets
- Block garages

Older houses in Stanswood, near St George or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, often with cement roofs.

- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- We confirm the material, testing if needed
- We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
- The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note
