Asbestos garage roof removal for Woodgreen properties
HSE treats removing asbestos cement roof sheets as non-licensed work in most cases, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Common materials are bargeboards, ridge pieces and downpipes, and people generally contact us about lean-to roofs and garages before a new roof or conversion.
Garages around Woodgreen may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Doing it yourself?
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.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
FAQs for Woodgreen
Do older homes in Woodgreen have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Woodgreen?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor

What else we do in Woodgreen
Duty holders and landlords in Woodgreen
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
After the job
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
After we’ve finished:
- Book your roofer in advance
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
What to avoid
Never cut or break the sheets.
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
