Asbestos Garage Disposal in Fareham, Hampshire
If you own an older property located in the Fareham area, you'll no doubt enjoy the many benefits of older design, such as traditional workmanship, high-quality materials, and often larger living spaces. One thing you won't enjoy, however, is the potential discovery of asbestos and the risks this may pose to your health.
If you have a garage or outbuilding that was constructed before 2000, it might have asbestos roofing sheets or cladding. Other areas where asbestos might have been used include cement walls, pipes, gutters, and insulation.
The only sure fire way to tell if it's definitely asbestos is to use an affordable asbestos sampling service, so that you can have complete peace of mind without putting yourself, your loved ones and even pets at risk.
At Goodbye Asbestos, we have over 20 years' experience in this area and can safely remove asbestos from your garage. We can even replace your garage roof with GRP fibreglass roofing, which comes with a 20-year guarantee.
Should you want to remove the entire garage instead, we can do so. Goodbye Asbestos can collaborate with other local, qualified contractors to:
- Disconnect your electrics
- Disconnect your water supply
- Dismantle and remove your garage
- Leave the area tidy and clean
Operating across the whole of Hampshire, Goodbye Asbestos is proud to offer our friendly service in the areas of Fort Wallington, Fleetland, Lower Bridgemary, Bridgemary, Titchfield, Southwick, Porchester, Wickham, and Hill Head.

What is asbestos?
A naturally occurring mineral found in rock, asbestos usage soared throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s when it was used in construction due to its fire-proof and durable qualities. It was then banned in the late 1990s after being linked to cancer and mesothelioma.
Where am I likely to find asbestos?
Common in buildings built before 2002, asbestos was used in everything from roof sheeting through to cement. Our most regular removals usually involve garage roofs and tiles as well as forms of insulation and lagging.
Why is asbestos harmful?
Asbestos is usually safe until it is damaged, drilled or sawn. When it gets broken up it releases miniscule particles that are invisible to the naked eye. These particles are then inhaled into the lungs, where they attach onto the lining.

Specialist Asbestos Management Surveys in the Fareham area
In some instances, where asbestos is discovered on non-domestic premises, there is a legal duty to dispose of it. For example, every employer is required by The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 to manage asbestos found on their premises.
The best way to do this is by hiring an experienced asbestos surveyor to complete an Asbestos Management Survey, which will determine if it is in fact asbestos. The surveyor can then assess its condition and advise on the next steps. Any business owner who fails to do this can be penalised by their local authority.
We regularly complete asbestos management surveys and the subsequent removals in and around the Fareham area. We can also undertake Asbestos Refurbishment and Demolition Surveys if there is renovation work planned, to ensure no one is harmed by ACMs during the work.

Asbestos experts in PO13
Goodbye Asbestos has been working with asbestos waste and removals in the PO13 area since 1998, even before it was completely banned in the United Kingdom. This gives us an unrivalled insight into the best practices and efficient handling of asbestos, along with our industry-leading training.

One question we're frequently asked is, “Does all asbestos have to be removed?” Whether or not the asbestos on your property needs removing is ultimately down to the condition of the asbestos itself. If it remains intact and doesn't need to be disturbed, it can be left alone. However, if it gets damaged or breaks, it will release those dangerous particles known to cause cancer. Because of this, we recommend you take a proactive approach and dispose of it as soon as possible.
