Can I do it myself?
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.

Step by step
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. In December, it’s dark in Church Hanborough by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking

What it might be made of
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Corrugated sheets
The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
What happens next
Share the paperwork with your builder.
Going forward:
- Give us a rough size
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Book your roofer in advance
Things not to do
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.

It’s worth knowing what garage roof removal does and does not cover:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is typically a separate job
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
