Afterwards
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Book your roofer in advance
Don’ts
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
