How asbestos garage roof removal works in Fawkham Green
Removing cement roof sheets is generally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. We often deal with ridge pieces, cement wall panels and downpipes, and people typically contact us about roofs to clear before demolition and single garages.
Rural garages near Fawkham Green are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Doing it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Your options compared
What about painting or overcladding? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. See our guide to repair, paint or replace. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

We cover Fawkham Green, about 19 miles from central London.
Do you work near Longfield station?
Yes. Longfield station is about 2.3 miles north-east of Fawkham Green, and we cover both.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
