Asbestos Garage Roof Removal

The Asbestos industry is the most regulated in the UK (even above Nuclear). The strict regulation on this industry is down to the fact asbestos exposure is the No. 1 cause of work-related deaths in the world!

Asbestos was used heavily in construction throughout the 1900’s due to its beneficial properties such as heat, fire, electric and chemical resistance, It made it the perfect material for insulation and other construction products, it was only in 1999 that asbestos was banned in the UK.

Probably the most common asbestos product which domestic customers contact us about is in regards to their asbestos cement garage roofs (and sides). Asbestos roofs are very common, many garages built between 1920 – 1990 will have an asbestos cement roof. It can be easily identified by the telltale corrugated cement sheets. Whilst not all corrugated cement sheets contain asbestos – 99% of the garage roofs we have tested come back positive for asbestos.
