Looking after things afterwards
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.
After we have finished:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- File the waste paperwork
- Plan the new roof before removal
Avoid these
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.

A closer look at the materials
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.

You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Lean-tos and carports

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
