Asbestos garage roof removal near Boyn Hill
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Boyn Hill. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. Common materials are bargeboards, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets, and people typically contact us about garages due for demolition and storm-damaged sheets.
In places like Boyn Hill, many garages are detached and reached by a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. We only recommend work that is needed, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Boyn Hill
My garage in Boyn Hill has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Could my house in Boyn Hill contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Boyn Hill can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

- Access to the area

Responsibilities for owners
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 own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Choosing the right option
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
