Asbestos garage roof removal in Sulhamstead Bannister Upper End
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Sulhamstead Bannister Upper End
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they will not take a person’s weight. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. We often deal with bargeboards, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets, and typical jobs are single garages and block garages.
In areas like Sulhamstead Bannister Upper End, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Should you do 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.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Afterwards
Share the paperwork with your builder.
To avoid problems in future:
- 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
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Avoid these
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Keep weight off the roof.

Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
