Asbestos garage roof removal for Steep Marsh properties

An old asbestos cement garage roof in Steep Marsh tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. Whether it’s double garages and garages due for demolition, we deal with cement gutters, downpipes and bargeboards and more.

Rural garages near Steep Marsh are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Steep Marsh questions

Do you cover Steep Marsh from London?

We cover Steep Marsh, about 49 miles from central London.

Do you cover Steep Marsh and the area around Petersfield station?

Yes. Petersfield station is about 1.7 miles south of Steep Marsh, and we cover both.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.

What happens to the old roof sheets?

Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.

My garage is in a row: can you still do it?

In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Send us some photos.

Can I do it myself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

After the job

Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed at the same time if you prefer.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
  • Measure or estimate the size of the roof
  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work

Don’ts

Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
