Asbestos garage roof removal in Flemings
You cannot stand on an asbestos cement roof: they will not take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. People often contact us about garage conversions and lean-to roofs, involving downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.
In a village like Flemings, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We only recommend work that is needed.

Typical garage roof jobs in Flemings

You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Single and double garage roofs
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Pieces of broken roof

Older houses in Flemings, near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

Responsibilities for owners
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Which option is right?
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Why people choose us
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Domestic and commercial work
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

How dangerous is asbestos?

We do: our area includes Flemings and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do you take down the walls too?
