Asbestos garage roof removal in Coneyhurst
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. Whether it’s sheet garages and garage blocks, we deal with ridge pieces, downpipes and bargeboards and more.
In places like Coneyhurst, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We only recommend work that’s needed.

Responsibilities for owners
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Coneyhurst, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Limits to be aware of
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord

Coneyhurst: your questions answered
Do you cover Coneyhurst from London?
We cover Coneyhurst, about 37 miles from central London.
Do you work near Billingshurst station?
Yes, we cover Coneyhurst and the area towards Billingshurst station, about 1.2 miles north-west.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always.
Is my garage roof in Coneyhurst asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Materials, one by one
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
Afterwards
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
Some practical advice:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
Things not to do
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
