Asbestos garage roof removal in Brick Hill
For landlords, agents and businesses
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Helpful guides
A closer look at the materials
Corrugated sheets
Most garage roofs are corrugated cement sheets. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Your options compared
Be wary of a price that is much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
Why choose us
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- Reports and results you can share

- Waste paperwork for every removal

Common questions in Brick Hill
My garage in Brick Hill has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you cover small places like Brick Hill?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
How long will the job take?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, though a single garage is usually quick once we are set up.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
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.
Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.
Materials we see
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bargeboards
Looking after things afterwards
We clear up and check for fragments.
Keeping things safe:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Book your roofer in advance
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Tell us about parking and access
Don’ts
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
Places near Brick Hill
What we deal with in Brick Hill
Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across Surrey.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Garages being knocked down
- Concrete-panel garages
- Garages in a row or block
- Double garages
Around Gracious Pond, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once.
