How asbestos garage roof removal works in Botany Bay
Many garages built before 2000, in Botany Bay and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, and give you the waste paperwork. We often deal with cement wall panels, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters, and people usually contact us about storm-damaged sheets and double garages.
In parts of London like Botany Bay, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Responsibilities for owners
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.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
