These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Garage conversions
- Lean-tos and carports
Properties near Pole Hill may have outbuildings as well as a garage, which can be dealt with together.

Asbestos garage roof removal in Bush Hill Park
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. From garage blocks and old, cracked sheets, we deal with downpipes, bargeboards and cement wall panels.
In Bush Hill Park, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Common questions in Bush Hill Park
Is asbestos common in Bush Hill Park homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Bush Hill Park can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you work in Bush Hill Park with London’s parking rules?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you work in Bush Hill Park?
Yes, Bush Hill Park is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is typically needed.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
A closer look at the materials
Ridge pieces
The ridge pieces are often the same material.
Roof felt
We will say if it should be tested.
What happens next
File the waste paperwork: it’s useful when you sell.
Going forward:
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Keep pets and children inside
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Tell us about parking and access
Don’ts
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
