Where asbestos turns up

Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.

These come up again and again:

  • Brittle, leaking roofs
  • Garages before a new roof or conversion
  • Carport roofs
  • Garages in a row or block

In Wiggonholt, many garages and sheds were added decades ago.

FAQs for Wiggonholt

Do you cover Wiggonholt and the area around Pulborough station?

Yes. Pulborough station is about 1.8 miles north-west of Wiggonholt, and we cover both.

Do you come out to small villages like Wiggonholt?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

What does licensed work mean?

Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually are not licensed.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.

How quickly can you come out?

It depends on the job and our diary. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.

Can I do it myself?

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Wiggonholt must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

What happens

We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. Late-December sunset in Wiggonholt is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
  2. If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
  3. We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
  4. The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Have any previous surveys or test results ready
  • Tell us about anything that’s already damaged

How we price garage roof removal

Every quote reflects:

  • The type of material and its condition
  • How much there is
  • Disposal costs
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space

Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

What to photograph

Helpful photos:

  • Cracks or breaks
  • How we’d reach it
  • Where we could park
  • Labels, if any

Every job is quoted in writing. Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details.

After the job

We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Let neighbours know beforehand
  • Send photos of the whole garage and the access
  • Keep the consignment note afterwards
  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone

Things not to do

Keep weight off the roof.

Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
