Asbestos garage roof removal in Coombe
If you are not sure your garage roof in Coombe is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you can’t be certain by looking. Typical jobs include pieces of broken roof and roofs to clear before demolition, involving corrugated roof sheets, bargeboards and downpipes.
In Coombe, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Materials, one by one
Gutters and downpipes
Older garages often have cement gutters and downpipes.
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Coombe
Could my house in Coombe contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Coombe may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you work in Coombe with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Typically, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we will advise.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
