Asbestos garage roof removal in Hampstead Garden Suburb
Removing cement roof sheets is usually non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Whether it’s carport roofs and double garages, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, ridge pieces and cement wall panels.
In parts of London like Hampstead Garden Suburb, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, which can involve a landlord or several owners. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Weighing up your options
What about painting or overcladding? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. Our guide covers the options. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.

Questions from Hampstead Garden Suburb
Is asbestos common in Hampstead Garden Suburb homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
My garage in Hampstead Garden Suburb has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
How can I get a price?
Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Do I need a test or 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?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
After we have finished in Hampstead Garden Suburb
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.
Going forward:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Book your roofer in advance
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Don’ts
Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Good to know
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Re-roofing is normally separate
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
