For landlords, agents and businesses
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Choosing the right option
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
Why choose us

- Reports and results you can share

Where asbestos turns up
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Streat
Do you cover Streat from London?
Streat is about 40 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover small places like Streat?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
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 help with a flat?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
Do you work in Streat?
Yes, we do: Streat is within the area we cover in West Sussex. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.

What else we do in Streat
What happens next
File the waste paperwork: it’s useful when you sell.
After we have finished:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
Things not to do
Never cut or break the sheets.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
What it might be made of
Roof felt
We will say if it should be tested.
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot 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.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
