Asbestos garage roof removal near Flexford
A closer look at the materials
Fixings
Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Asbestos garage roof removal for Flexford properties
Many garages built before 2000, in Flexford and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. We often deal with bargeboards, cement wall panels and cement gutters, and typical jobs are garages being knocked down and single garages.
Garages around Flexford may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Common questions in Flexford
Do you cover Flexford from London?
Flexford is about 31 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you come out to small villages like Flexford?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
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.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
What it costs
Quotes vary because of:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The survey scope
- The size of the job
- Parking and access charges
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.
What to photograph
Photo tips:
- A rough size or measurement
- A photo of the whole area
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you’re planning. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Responsibilities for owners
If you manage or own a block in Flexford, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- High winds can delay roof work
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.
Materials we see
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Fixings and bolts
- Ridge pieces
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
What happens next
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the consignment note.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Book your roofer in advance
- Let us know where we can park
- Let neighbours know beforehand
Don’ts
Keep weight off the roof.
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
