Asbestos garage roof removal for Batt's Corner
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Batt's Corner
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. People often contact us about garages before a new roof or conversion and double garages, involving corrugated roof sheets, ridge pieces and bargeboards.
In a village like Batt's Corner, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

How we price garage roof removal
Every quote reflects:
- The survey scope
- Access to the area
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- The type of material and its condition
Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:
- Approximate dimensions
- Damaged areas
- Labels, if any
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

Looking after things afterwards
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Give us a rough size
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Let us know where we can park
Avoid these
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Materials, one by one
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
Gutters and downpipes
We take them down in whole lengths.
Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Batt's Corner questions
Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Could my house in Batt's Corner contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Batt's Corner may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do you cover Batt's Corner?
We do: Batt's Corner is within the area we cover in Surrey. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
What we do and don’t cover
To be clear about the scope:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- High winds can delay roof work
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
