Asbestos garage roof removal in Charndon
Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Tell us your plans when you ask for a quote. Typical materials include downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and bargeboards, and typical jobs are roofs to clear before demolition and brittle, leaking roofs.
In places like Charndon, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Choosing the right option
Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you are not planning work, it can stay; cracks, leaks or a conversion generally mean removal. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
What you get
- Work done to the regulations
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Records for your files
See how we quote and published price ranges.
Looking after things afterwards
We clear up and check for fragments before we leave.
To avoid problems in future:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
Things not to do
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Materials, one by one
Wall panels
Walls come down the same way.
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are generally asbestos cement too.
Charndon: your questions answered
Are garage roofs in Charndon normally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Could my house in Charndon contain asbestos?
If your home in Charndon was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.
Do you cover Charndon?
Yes, we do: our area includes Charndon and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Is my garage roof in Charndon asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
