Asbestos garage roof removal near Whitsbury
You can’t stand on an asbestos cement roof: they will not take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. People often contact us about single garages and garages before a new roof or conversion, including downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.
Garages around Whitsbury may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Helpful guides
Whitsbury: your questions answered
Do older homes in Whitsbury have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Whitsbury?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can the roof be overclad?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Do not pressure-wash it first.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.

A closer look at the materials
Ridge pieces
The ridge pieces are often the same material.
Fixings
Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.
Looking after things afterwards
We clear up and check for fragments before we leave.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Give us a rough size
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Doing it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What we deal with in Whitsbury
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which need careful clearing.
