About our asbestos garage roof removal in Westfield
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Whether it’s old, cracked sheets and broken sheets after high winds, we deal with bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes and more.
Garages around Westfield may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Helpful guides
Where asbestos turns up
Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Garages due for demolition
- Pieces of broken roof
- Lean-tos and carports
Properties near Church Wood and Robsack Wood may have outbuildings as well as a garage.
What your quote should include
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Whether VAT is included
- How fibres will be kept down
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Prices and what affects them
Our quotes take into account:
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Access to the area
- Travel and parking
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Sending photos
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- An overall view
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Approximate dimensions
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you’re planning. Then ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.

Common questions in Westfield
Do you work near Doleham station?
Yes, we cover Westfield and the area towards Doleham station, about 1.6 miles north-east.
Is asbestos common in Westfield homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Westfield can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Do you cover Westfield?
Yes, we do: Westfield is within the area we cover in East Sussex. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
