Asbestos garage roof removal near Broyle Side
Many garages built before 2000, in Broyle Side and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. Whether it’s single garages and garage blocks, we deal with downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels.
In a village like Broyle Side, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Broyle Side
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Garages being knocked down
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Lean-tos and carports
Older houses in Broyle Side, near The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.
Questions to ask before you book

- The method and controls
A closer look at the materials
Gutters and downpipes
They’re removed whole where possible.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

FAQs for Broyle Side
Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover small places like Broyle Side?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. We can test a sample.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
How can I get a price?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What it costs
Prices vary with:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- How easy it is to reach
- The quantity or area
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
Helping us quote
A few photos can save a site visit:
- The access route
- Approximate dimensions
- An overall view
- A clear close-up

Looking after things afterwards
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
Going forward:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- File the waste paperwork
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Keep weight off the roof.
Duty holders and landlords in Broyle Side
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
