Asbestos garage roof removal in Steeple Claydon
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Whether it’s garages due a new roof and garage blocks, we deal with downpipes, cement wall panels and cement gutters.
In a smaller place like Steeple Claydon, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, so access is typically simple to plan. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Should you do 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: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Duty holders and landlords in Steeple Claydon
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Steeple Claydon, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Steeple Claydon
My garage in Steeple Claydon 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.
How far is Steeple Claydon from London?
We cover Steeple Claydon, about 49 miles from central London.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
How long will the job take?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
