Staying safe afterwards:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone

- Photos of the garage and the way in help
What to avoid
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Keep weight off the roof.
Asbestos garage roof removal near Stonehill
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you cannot be certain by looking. Typical jobs include single and double garage roofs and prefab garages with cement walls, involving cement wall panels, cement gutters and downpipes.
Rural garages near Stonehill 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, for your records.

Stonehill: your questions answered
Do older homes in Stonehill have asbestos?
Any home in Stonehill built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How far is Stonehill from London?
Stonehill is about 22 miles from central London, well within our area.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We will identify it and advise on removal.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.

How it works
We wear disposable coveralls and respirators throughout, and keep the area clear of everyone else. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. In December, it’s dark in Stonehill by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Your options compared
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Should you do it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Good to know

- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job
- Different materials need a different approach
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.

Where asbestos turns up
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, so they become brittle.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Garages in a row or block
- Sheet garages
- Roofs to clear before demolition
In Stonehill, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
