Asbestos garage roof removal near Hampton
Asbestos garage roof removal for Hampton properties
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. Whether it’s single garages and prefab garages with cement walls, we cover corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and bargeboards.
In parts of London like Hampton, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, so check who owns the block. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Typical garage roof jobs in Hampton
Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so many garages across Greater London still have them.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Double garages
- Garages due for demolition
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Garages due a new roof
Around Oak Avenue Local Nature Reserve, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once.
What your quote should include
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- What isn’t included
- Waste disposal and the consignment note
Afterwards
File the waste paperwork: it’s useful when you sell.
Going forward:
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Give us a rough size
Don’ts
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Which option is right?
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Helpful guides
DIY and asbestos
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

What’s in and what’s out:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

Nearby places to Hampton
Hampton questions
Do you cover Hampton and the area around Hampton station?
Yes, we cover Hampton and the area towards Hampton station, about 0.5 miles south.
My garage in Hampton has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Typically not: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, but it must still be done properly.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
