How asbestos garage roof removal works in Crockham Hill
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical jobs include storm-damaged sheets and lean-tos and carports, including corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and downpipes.
Garages around Crockham Hill may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

How we price garage roof removal
We base our quote on:
- Disposal costs
- Travel and parking
- The size of the job
- The number of samples or the size of the building
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Sending photos
When you send photos, these help most:
- An idea of size
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Where we could park
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you use our quote form or call 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

Materials, one by one
Gutters and downpipes
Older garages often have cement gutters and downpipes.
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
After the job
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Give us a rough size
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
Avoid these
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.

Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Common questions in Crockham Hill
Are garage roofs in Crockham Hill typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do older homes in Crockham Hill have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
