About our asbestos garage roof removal in Bisley
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical materials include cement gutters, ridge pieces and downpipes, and people typically contact us about garages before a new roof or conversion and storm-damaged sheets.
In places like Bisley, many garages are detached and reached by a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Can I do it myself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
After we’ve finished in Bisley
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it’s useful when you sell.
Some practical advice:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Give us a rough size
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Things not to do
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Keep weight off the roof.
How it works
If the weather turns windy or very wet, we may pause or reschedule, because safety comes first. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we’ll do before we start. Garage roof removal in Bisley is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We check the roof material first
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
Getting ready
- Clear the way to the work area
- Keep the area clear of children and pets

Helpful guides
Duty holders and landlords in Bisley
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
If you manage or own a block in Bisley, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
Where asbestos turns up
Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and repairs on old sheets rarely last long.
In older properties, we often see:
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Garage blocks
- Carport roofs
In Bisley, many garages and sheds were added decades ago.

Your options compared
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the roof is fragile, so there’s a serious falls risk too. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Bisley
Could my house in Bisley contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Are garage roofs in Bisley typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
