Asbestos garage roof removal near Dunbridge
Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so have the replacement roof planned first. Mention your plans when you get in touch. Whether it’s prefab garages with cement walls and old, cracked sheets, we deal with cement gutters, bargeboards and downpipes and more.
In a village like Dunbridge, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
