About our asbestos garage roof removal in Bonnington
We remove single and double garage roofs, garages in rows and blocks, lean-tos and carports across Bonnington. Photos and rough sizes help us quote. Typical jobs include brittle, leaking roofs and pieces of broken roof, including ridge pieces, cement gutters and downpipes.

Bonnington garages: local notes
Bonnington is about 5 miles south-east of Ashford, in Kent. Bonnington has a mix of older and newer buildings, and anything from before 2000 may contain asbestos. Bonnington is one of 922 places in Kent where we work. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 15 miles away.
In Bonnington, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

Bonnington: your questions answered
Do you work on properties in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
How far is Bonnington from London?
Bonnington is about 53 miles from central London, well within our area.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Is my garage roof in Bonnington asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
What happens next
Keep the consignment note with your property records: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Let us know where we can park
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Things not to do
Keep weight off the roof.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Duty holders and landlords in Bonnington
If you manage or own a block in Bonnington, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

Doing it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
