Where asbestos turns up
Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
In older properties, we often see:
- Block garages
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Garages due for demolition
- Single garages
Older houses in Granborough, near Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

How asbestos garage roof removal works in Granborough
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. Whether it’s carport roofs and old, cracked sheets, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and cement wall panels and more.
In a village like Granborough, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Granborough
Is asbestos common in Granborough homes?
If your home in Granborough was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Granborough from London?
We cover Granborough, about 45 miles from central London.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
How long will the job take?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Do you cover Granborough?
Yes, Granborough is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
