Prices and what affects them
The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:
- The category of work
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- The size of the job
A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Helpful guides
Common questions in Aldington
Do you come out to small villages like Aldington?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do older homes in Aldington have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Aldington may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Duty holders and landlords in Aldington
If you run a business from older premises in Aldington, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Limits to be aware of
A few things to be aware of:
- High winds can delay roof work
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- Different materials need a different approach
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Fixings and bolts
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Ridge pieces
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
Looking after things afterwards
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Avoid these
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Which option is right?
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
