Asbestos garage roof removal for Westley properties
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical materials include ridge pieces, downpipes and bargeboards, and people typically contact us about lean-tos and carports and single garages.
In a village like Westley, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

FAQs for Westley
Is asbestos common in Westley homes?
Any home in Westley built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you come out to small villages like Westley?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Do you cover Westley?
Yes, we do: Westley is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Share the postcode and a short description and we’ll quote.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
The process
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Westley is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Describe the garage
- We plan the access and the waste
- We time it around your roofer
- We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
- We clean up and send the paperwork
Getting ready
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Mention any damage before we arrive
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage

After the job
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
Don’ts
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Choosing the right option
DIY garage roof removal? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and there’s a real risk of falling through the roof. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
