Asbestos garage roof removal near Borden
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Borden tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is normally the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s old, cracked sheets and garages due for demolition, we deal with ridge pieces, cement wall panels and bargeboards and more.
Garages around Borden may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

DIY and asbestos
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Materials we deal with
Gutters and downpipes
Cement gutters and downpipes are common.
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which is sometimes tested too.
FAQs for Borden
My garage in Borden has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Borden and the area around Liss station?
Yes, we cover Borden and the area towards Liss station, about 3.6 miles north-west.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Send us some photos.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Do you work in Borden?
Yes, we do: our area includes Borden and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
How long will the job take?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Borden
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
These come up again and again:
- Garages being knocked down
- Carport roofs
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
If you’re a landlord with garages near Liss station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.
