Asbestos garage roof removal near Eastbury
Common questions in Eastbury
My garage in Eastbury has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do older homes in Eastbury have asbestos?
Any home in Eastbury built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Eastbury
We remove sheets, ridges, fixings and any cement gutters and downpipes, all wrapped for disposal. Typical jobs include carport roofs and garages due for demolition, including bargeboards, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets.

- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole

Helpful guides
What it might be made of
Fixings
Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Corrugated sheets
Most garage roofs are corrugated cement sheets. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
Can I do it myself?
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.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Good to know
To be clear about the scope:
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is typically a separate job
