A closer look at the materials
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. We wet them and lower them whole.
Wall panels
Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.
Doing 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.
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Which option is right?
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. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Why choose us
- Quotes that spell out the scope
- Work done to the regulations

Looking after things afterwards

- Let neighbours know beforehand

- Tell us about parking and access

Don’ts
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Never cut or break the sheets.
