Asbestos garage roof removal near Hampstead
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. From carport roofs and storm-damaged sheets, we cover corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and ridge pieces and more.
In parts of London like Hampstead, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

What we deal with in Hampstead
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Block garages
- Storm-damaged sheets
Older houses in Hampstead, near St John-at-Hampstead church or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

Prices and what affects them
The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:
- The category of work
- Travel and parking
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Access to the area
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Duty holders and landlords in Hampstead
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
How we work
Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. The work area is kept clear while we are working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. In December, it’s dark in Hampstead by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Send photos of the garage and the roof
- We check it’s asbestos cement
- You get a written quote
- On the day we wet, unfix and lower the sheets whole
- The waste goes to a permitted site with paperwork
Getting ready
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Clear the way to the work area
- Keep away from the material in the meantime

FAQs for Hampstead
Can you work in Hampstead with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Could my house in Hampstead contain asbestos?
If your home in Hampstead was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Normally, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Send us some photos.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Which option is right?
Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you are not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
