Asbestos garage roof removal for Crawley properties

Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Crawley. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. From pieces of broken roof and garages due for demolition, we cover cement wall panels, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes and more.

Garages around Crawley may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

How we price garage roof removal

Every quote reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • How many samples are needed
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • Licensed or non-licensed

We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

What to photograph

For a quick quote, include:

  • An idea of size
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Labels, if any
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces

Not sure what you need? Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page and describe the problem, and we will advise.

Looking after things afterwards

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it’s useful when you sell.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Plan the new roof before removal
  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
  • Photos of the garage and the way in help
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs

Avoid these

Never cut or break the sheets.

Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

Weighing up your options

Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

What you get

  • Waste paperwork for every removal
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Quotes that spell out the scope
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Your questions about garage roof removal in Crawley

Is asbestos common in Crawley homes?

If your home in Crawley was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you cover small places like Crawley?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

How can I get a price?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, always.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Doing it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

What happens

After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then take the waste away. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Garage roof removal in Crawley is planned around daylight: sunset is about 4:00pm in December and about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Send photos of the garage, the roof and the access
  2. If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
  3. We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
  4. We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
  5. The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note

Getting ready

  • Have any previous surveys or test results ready
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Don’t disturb the material before we get there

What we deal with in Crawley

Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across Hampshire.

Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

  • Prefab garages with cement walls
  • Garages due a new roof
  • Single and double garage roofs
  • Garages being knocked down

If you let a house with a garage near Winchester station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

What your quote should include

  • What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
  • For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
  • What paperwork you get
  • How fibres will be kept down

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Common materials
