About our asbestos garage roof removal in Wineham

HSE treats removing asbestos cement roof sheets as non-licensed work in most cases, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. From single garages and storm-damaged sheets, we cover cement gutters, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets.

In a village like Wineham, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Where asbestos turns up

Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so many garages across West Sussex still have them.

Typical jobs in Wineham include:

  • Garages due a new roof
  • Prefab garages with cement walls
  • Garages due for demolition
  • Pieces of broken roof

Around Woods Mill, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, which can be dealt with together.

Questions to ask before you book

Questions from Wineham

Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you cover Wineham from London?

We cover Wineham, about 37 miles from central London.

How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?

Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?

Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Do not pressure-wash it first.

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.

What if the weather’s bad?

It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Materials, one by one

Corrugated sheets

Sheets are wrapped for disposal.

Fixings

The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Wineham must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

How we work

Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then load the wrapped waste. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. Garage roof removal in Wineham is planned around daylight: sunset is about 3:55pm in December and about 9:20pm in June.

  1. Send photos of the garage, the roof and the access
  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. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note

Getting ready

  • Find any old asbestos reports
  • Don’t disturb the material before we get there

Should you do it yourself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
