Asbestos garage roof removal near Brewer Street

The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. From garages in a row or block and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs, we deal with cement gutters, ridge pieces and bargeboards.

Rural garages near Brewer Street are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Choosing the right option

Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

Why people choose us

  • No removal until we know what it is
  • Records for your files
  • Across London and the South East
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces

DIY and asbestos

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

The scope of garage roof removal

Worth knowing before booking:

  • Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
  • Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
  • Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

How it works

On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there is no confusion. In December, it’s dark in Brewer Street by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

  1. Describe the garage
  2. We plan the access and the waste
  3. We agree a date that fits your new roof
  4. We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up and send the paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Warn neighbours if needed
  • Clear the way to the work area

Materials we deal with

Corrugated sheets

The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.

Fixings

Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

Duty holders and landlords in Brewer Street

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

What happens to the old roof sheets?

In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
