About our asbestos garage roof removal in Tilford Common
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. Whether it’s garages being knocked down and block garages, we deal with cement wall panels, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.
Garages around Tilford Common may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Common questions in Tilford Common
Are garage roofs in Tilford Common normally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you cover small places like Tilford Common?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Looking after things afterwards
Share the paperwork with your builder.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- File the waste paperwork
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
Don’ts
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
For managing agents and freeholders in Tilford Common, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Doing it yourself?
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.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
How it works
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. We plan garage roof jobs in Tilford Common for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
Preparing for the visit
- Move things out of the way carefully
- Let us know where we can park
- Find any old asbestos reports
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
