DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
The process
Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, then loaded for disposal. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. In December, it’s dark in West Grinstead by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We check the roof material first
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
How to prepare
- Dig out previous surveys
- Warn neighbours if needed
- Clear the way to the work area
How to get a quote
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 to get started.

Questions from West Grinstead
My garage in West Grinstead has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How far is West Grinstead from London?
We cover West Grinstead, about 37 miles from central London.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Duty holders and landlords in West Grinstead

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in West Grinstead, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
