About our asbestos garage roof removal in Asheridge
Many garages built before 2000, in Asheridge and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. Whether it’s roofs to clear before demolition and sheet garages, we cover ridge pieces, bargeboards and corrugated roof sheets and more.
In a village like Asheridge, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

For businesses and landlords in Asheridge
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Asheridge, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

We wear disposable coveralls and respirators throughout, and nobody else comes near. At the end, we tell you what was done and what happens next. Late-December sunset in Asheridge is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

What to avoid
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.

These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Asheridge questions
How far is Asheridge from London?
We cover Asheridge, about 28 miles from central London.
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Choosing the right option
Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
Why us?
- No removal until we know what it is
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
