Asbestos garage roof removal for Clapham Junction
Asbestos garage roof removal near Clapham Junction
Many garages built before 2000, in Clapham Junction and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. We often deal with corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and cement wall panels, and typical jobs are garage conversions and sheet garages.
In Clapham Junction, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

A closer look at the materials
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Fixings
Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Common questions in Clapham Junction
Could my house in Clapham Junction contain asbestos?
Any home in Clapham Junction built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Clapham Junction station?
Yes, we cover Clapham Junction, including the streets around Clapham Junction station.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.
How long will the job take?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Normally not: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
