Asbestos garage roof removal for Upper Beeding

Asbestos garage roof removal for Upper Beeding properties

Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. From single garages and concrete-panel garages, we deal with bargeboards, cement wall panels and ridge pieces and more.

Garages around Upper Beeding may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need.

Should you do it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Your options compared

DIY garage roof removal? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and there is a real risk of falling through the roof. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Why us?

  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Houses, flats and business premises

What happens next

Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so plan your replacement roof in advance.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Keep pets and children inside
  • Send photos of the whole garage and the access

Avoid these

If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.

Never cut or break the sheets.

How we work

Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and nobody else comes near. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing. In December, it’s dark in Upper Beeding by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Give us the size of the garage and the access
  2. We check the roof material first
  3. We quote and book a date around your roofer
  4. The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions

Questions from Upper Beeding

Do you cover Upper Beeding from London?

We cover Upper Beeding, about 43 miles from central London.

Do older homes in Upper Beeding have asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

What does licensed work mean?

It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

What happens to the old roof sheets?

They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Where asbestos turns up

Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.

In older properties, we often see:

  • Single and double garage roofs
  • Lean-to roofs
  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs

For rented homes with garages close to Shoreham-By-Sea station, check what the roof is made of before arranging repairs.

Before booking anyone

  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • How fibres will be kept down
  • What is not included
