How asbestos garage roof removal works in Bedgrove
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Bedgrove tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. Common materials are downpipes, cement wall panels and bargeboards, and typical jobs are prefab garages with cement walls and garages being knocked down.
Homes in areas like Bedgrove often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs, which can be removed together. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Bedgrove questions
Could my house in Bedgrove contain asbestos?
Any home in Bedgrove built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
My garage in Bedgrove has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.
How can I get a price?
Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
These are some of the things we deal with in Bedgrove:
- Single garages
- Garage conversions
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Carport roofs
For rented homes with garages close to Stoke Mandeville station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
- Whether the job needs notifying
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
The process
Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, ready for disposal at a permitted site. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions. In December, it’s dark in Bedgrove by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork

What happens next
File the waste paperwork: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.
Some practical advice:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Keep pets and children inside
- File the waste paperwork
Things not to do
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
Can I do it myself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
