Asbestos garage roof removal for Crofton properties
You can’t stand on an asbestos cement roof: they won’t take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Whether it’s old, cracked sheets and broken sheets after high winds, we deal with downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters and more.
Rural garages near Crofton are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

For landlords, agents and businesses
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
How we price garage roof removal
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Disposal costs
- Access to the area
- The type of material and its condition
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:
- A picture of the whole area
- Where we could park
- Cracks or breaks
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you’re planning. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
How we work
Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, then loaded for disposal. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing. In December, it’s dark in Crofton by about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

- We check it’s asbestos cement
- We quote for the removal and disposal
- On the day we wet, unfix and lower the sheets whole
- The waste goes to a permitted site with paperwork

Helpful guides
Looking after things 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.
Once we’re done:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Keep pets and children inside
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
Don’ts
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Crofton questions
Do you come out to small villages like Crofton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Is asbestos common in Crofton homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Crofton may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
Which option is right?
Very cheap garage roof quotes can mean shortcuts: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. The cost of garage roof removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
