Asbestos garage roof removal in Stonehills
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Typical jobs include single and double garage roofs and brittle, leaking roofs, involving corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and bargeboards.
In places like Stonehills, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Why people call us in Stonehills
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Carport roofs
- Block garages
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
For rented homes with garages close to Hamble station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

- Waste disposal and the consignment note

Looking after things afterwards
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Avoid these
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
How it works
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole. We will tell you when we’ve finished and what you’ll receive afterwards. We plan garage roof jobs in Stonehills for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.
- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- We confirm the material, testing if needed
- You get a written quote
- The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork
Preparing for the visit
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Let us know where we can park
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage
How to get a quote
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page to get started.

Common questions in Stonehills
Do you come out to small villages like Stonehills?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
What it costs
Our quotes take into account:
- Material and condition
- The size of the job
