Asbestos garage roof removal for Worthing

What happens next

Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone

What to avoid

Keep weight off the roof.

Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Garage roofs in Worthing

Worthing is in West Sussex. Homes, landlords and businesses in Worthing contact us for garage roof jobs. Worthing is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex where we work. We work right across the region, from Worthing to Brighton (12 miles away).

If the garage opens onto a main road such as the A24 and A27, tell us about parking and access. Near open spaces such as Highdown Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once. The sea is within about 2 miles, and on exposed sites wind decides when roof sheets can be taken down safely.

Anywhere in BN13, BN11, BN14 and BN12, we can help with garage roof removal, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Local streets include Church Road, Market Place and High Street; we cover every one. You will find Worthing on the A24 and A27, which makes it simple to get to. If your property is just outside Worthing, we also cover Salvington (1 mile north), Offington (1 mile north-east), Broadwater (1 mile east), Findon Valley (2 miles north) and East Worthing (2 miles east). We also cover nearby towns such as Bognor Regis (13 miles west), Burgess Hill (15 miles north-east), Littlehampton (6 miles west), Shoreham-by-Sea (6 miles east), Lancing (3 miles east) and Rustington (5 miles west). Worthing is among the bigger towns we cover in West Sussex, with every kind of building, from homes to workplaces.

Nearby you’ll also find The Acre (1.2 miles south-east) and Old Castle (less than half a mile east). Green spaces nearby include Highdown Hill and Widewater Lagoon.

  • Local schools include Thomas A Becket First School (under half a mile north-east) and Thomas A Becket Infant School (less than half a mile north-east)
  • Pubs nearby include The George And Dragon Public House (less than half a mile east)

Can I do it myself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Step by step

Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then load the wrapped waste. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and use controls to keep dust down. Garage roof removal in Worthing is planned around daylight: sunset is about 4:00pm in December and about 9:20pm in June.

  1. Send photos of the garage and the roof
  2. We confirm the material, testing a sample if needed
  3. We quote for the removal and disposal
  4. On the day we wet, unfix and lower the sheets whole
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with paperwork

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Move things out of the way carefully

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.

What we deal with in Worthing

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

In older properties, we often see:

  • Garages due a new roof
  • Garages due for demolition
  • Carport roofs
  • Garage blocks

For rented homes with garages close to West Worthing station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

What it might be made of

Wall panels

These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.

Fixings

Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

For businesses and landlords in Worthing

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

For managing agents and freeholders in Worthing, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
