Asbestos garage roof removal near Bushey Mead
Many garages built before 2000, in Bushey Mead and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, and give you the waste paperwork. Typical materials include bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes, and typical jobs are roofs to clear before demolition and garage blocks.
In Bushey Mead, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Bushey Mead: your questions answered
Do you work near Raynes Park station?
Yes. Raynes Park station is close to the centre of Bushey Mead, and we cover the whole area.
Do you work in Bushey Mead despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.
Do you cover Bushey Mead?
Yes. We cover Bushey Mead and the surrounding area as part of Greater London. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
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.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
What happens
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. We will tell you when we have finished and what you’ll receive afterwards. In December, it’s dark in Bushey Mead by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
Getting ready
- Warn neighbours if needed
- Let us know if something’s broken
- Move things out of the way carefully

Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Options to consider in Bushey Mead
Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; cracks, leaks or a conversion typically mean removal. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.
What you get
- Reports and results you can share
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
See how we quote and published price ranges.
Looking after things afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Once we’re done:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Give us a rough size
Don’ts
Keep weight off the roof.
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

For landlords, agents and businesses
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
What it might be made of
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which is sometimes tested too.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
