Asbestos garage roof removal for Stonestreet Green
Common questions in Stonestreet Green
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you work near Westenhanger station?
Yes. Westenhanger station is about 4 miles east of Stonestreet Green, and we cover both.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
Do you cover Stonestreet Green?
Yes. We cover Stonestreet Green and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
Asbestos garage roof removal near Stonestreet Green
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is normally the start of a new roof or conversion. From pieces of broken roof and garages in a row or block, we deal with downpipes, cement gutters and cement wall panels and more.
In a village like Stonestreet Green, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
