How asbestos garage roof removal works in Berrylands
Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so have the replacement roof planned first. Mention your plans when you get in touch. Typical jobs include concrete-panel garages and lean-tos and carports, including downpipes, cement gutters and bargeboards.
In London neighbourhoods like Berrylands, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, so check who owns the block. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Questions from Berrylands
Do you cover Berrylands and the area around Berrylands station?
Yes, we cover Berrylands, including the streets around Berrylands station.
Do you work in Berrylands despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
A closer look at the materials
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Corrugated sheets
Most garage roofs are corrugated cement sheets. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
After the job
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the consignment note.
Going forward:
- Let us know where we can park
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
Things not to do
Keep weight off the roof.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
What’s included, and what is not
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- Different materials need a different approach
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Cement wall panels
- Gutters and downpipes

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you manage or own a block in Berrylands, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
