How asbestos garage roof removal works in Bandonhill
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Bandonhill tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is usually the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s garages being knocked down and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs, we cover cement gutters, cement wall panels and bargeboards and more.
In London neighbourhoods like Bandonhill, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Double garages
- Carport roofs
- Garages due a new roof
- Roofs to clear before demolition
For rented homes with garages close to Waddon station, check what the roof is made of before arranging repairs.
Questions to ask before you book
- The scope of the job, in writing
- If the price includes VAT
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note
- Which laboratory analyses samples
Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
If you run a business from older premises in Bandonhill, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Choosing the right option
Paint or overclad instead? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. Our guide covers the options. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Questions from Bandonhill
Can you work in Bandonhill with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Do you work near Waddon station?
Yes. Waddon station is about 0.7 miles east of Bandonhill, and we cover both.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
