Aldershot: If you’re a landlord with garages near Aldershot station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it. Garages on busy roads like the A323 and A325 need loading planned in advance. We plan garage roof jobs in Aldershot for daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.
Looking after things afterwards
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Let neighbours know beforehand
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Duty holders and landlords in GU11
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in GU11 must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
If you manage or own a block in GU11, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
What’s included, and what isn’t
The usual limits are:
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is typically a separate job
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Your questions about garage roof removal in GU11
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Will I get the price in writing?
