How asbestos garage roof removal works in West Heath
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around West Heath. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. Common materials are ridge pieces, bargeboards and corrugated roof sheets, and people usually contact us about roofs to clear before demolition and carport roofs.
Garages around West Heath may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Looking after things afterwards
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Tell us about parking and access
What to avoid
Keep weight off the roof.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
What we deal with in West Heath
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, so they become brittle.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Sheet garages
- Single and double garage roofs
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Garage blocks
Across West Heath, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000.

FAQs for West Heath
Do you cover small places like West Heath?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work near Bramley (Hants) station?
Yes, we cover West Heath and the area towards Bramley (Hants) station, about 4 miles east.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
The process
If the weather turns windy or very wet, we may pause or reschedule, because safety comes first. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere.

If your business premises in West Heath were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Waste quantity and disposal
- Location, parking and any London charges
