How asbestos garage roof removal works in Eythorne
You cannot stand on an asbestos cement roof: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Whether it’s double garages and lean-to roofs, we cover downpipes, ridge pieces and cement wall panels.
In a village like Eythorne, 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 it’s better to leave a material in place.

What affects the price in Eythorne
The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:

- Licensed or non-licensed
- The number of samples or the size of the building

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Eythorne, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
If you run a business from older premises in Eythorne, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
DIY and asbestos
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Afterwards
If you’re converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Let us know where we can park
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Avoid these
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
What we deal with in Eythorne
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Carport roofs
- Garages in a row or block
- Garages being knocked down
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
In Eythorne, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, often with cement roofs.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Eythorne
Do you come out to small villages like Eythorne?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work near Shepherds Well station?
Yes. Shepherds Well station is about 1.8 miles west of Eythorne, and we cover both.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.
