Asbestos garage roof removal for Breach properties
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Typical jobs include storm-damaged sheets and garages due a new roof, including downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.
Garages around Breach may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Breach questions
My garage in Breach has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Is asbestos common in Breach homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Breach may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Do you work in Breach?
Yes, Breach is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Send us some photos.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with paperwork for your records.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
