About our asbestos garage roof removal in Clapham Park
If you’re not sure your garage roof in Clapham Park is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. People often contact us about garages before a new roof or conversion and lean-tos and carports, involving corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and downpipes.
Garages around Clapham Park are often at the end of a garden or in a block off a rear lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Typical garage roof jobs in Clapham Park
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Garages due a new roof
- Garages due for demolition
- Double garages
Around Knight's Hill, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once.

Clapham Park questions
Is asbestos common in Clapham Park homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Clapham Park can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you work in Clapham Park with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
How can I get a price?
Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
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. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
