Asbestos garage roof removal in Brompton

We remove single and double garage roofs, garages in rows and blocks, lean-tos and carports across Brompton. Photos and rough sizes help us quote. Typical jobs include carport roofs and broken sheets after high winds, including cement gutters, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets.

In London neighbourhoods like Brompton, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Options to consider in Brompton

Paint or overclad instead? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Our guide covers the options. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • No removal until we know what it is
  • Domestic and commercial work
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance

For landlords, agents and businesses

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

Limits to be aware of

It’s worth knowing what garage roof removal does and doesn’t cover:

  • Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
  • If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
  • High winds can delay roof work

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

Materials we see

  • Roof felt
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Corrugated cement sheets
  • Cement wall panels
  • Fixings and bolts
  • Ridge pieces
  • Bargeboards

FAQs for Brompton

Could my house in Brompton contain asbestos?

If your home in Brompton was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

My garage in Brompton has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote.

How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?

A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can sample it safely from the edge.

Do you work in flats?

Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

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 you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.

How do I get a quote?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

Prices and what affects them

These are the main things that affect the price of garage roof removal:

  • Parking and access charges
  • The survey scope
  • What the material is and its state
  • How much waste there is

Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Sending photos

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • Visible markings
  • A clear close-up
  • Damaged areas
  • An overall view

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749 to get started.

  1. Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
  2. We check the roof material first
  3. We quote and book a date around your roofer
  4. We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork

Looking after things afterwards

We clear up and check for fragments before we leave.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Keep the consignment note afterwards
  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Photos of the garage and the way in help
  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work

Things not to do

Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.

Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
