Asbestos garage roof removal across Surrey

Removing cement roof sheets is generally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. People often contact us about garages being knocked down and garages before a new roof or conversion, including bargeboards, downpipes and ridge pieces.

Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, then loaded for disposal.

  1. Send photos of the garage and the roof
  2. We check it’s asbestos cement
  3. We quote for the removal and disposal

Surrey: garages, outbuildings and roofs

Garages across Surrey, from Guildford, Woking and Camberley to 276 villages and hamlets, often have corrugated cement roofs from before 2000. Town garages are often in blocks, village ones among outbuildings. Parts of Surrey are within a few miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, where barns and outbuildings with cement sheeting are a common sight.

Guildford: Older houses in Guildford, near Church of St John the Evangelist or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs. Garages on busy roads like the A3 and A25 need loading planned in advance. Late-December sunset in Guildford is about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

Afterwards

Share the paperwork with your builder.

  • File the waste paperwork
  • Let neighbours know beforehand
  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work

Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

Should you do it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Responsibilities for owners

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Surrey

Garage roofs were often made of asbestos cement until 1999, so many garages across Surrey still have them.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
  • Broken sheets after high winds
  • Single and double garage roofs
  • Block garages

Materials we deal with

Wall panels

Some garages have cement wall panels as well.

Ridge pieces

We take them off with the sheets.

Surrey: your questions answered

What if the weather’s bad?

That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

Do you take down the walls too?

Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.

Where do the sheets go?

They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.

What if my house is newer?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.

Do you work on commercial premises?

We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
