About our asbestos garage roof removal in Hampton Poyle
Many garages built before 2000, in Hampton Poyle 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. Whether it’s roofs to clear before demolition and block garages, we cover cement gutters, bargeboards and downpipes.
In a village like Hampton Poyle, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Should you do it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Hampton Poyle: your questions answered
Do you work near Islip station?
Yes, we cover Hampton Poyle and the area towards Islip station, about 1.5 miles south-east.
Do you cover small places like Hampton Poyle?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
How do I get a quote?
Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.

- Lean-tos and carports
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Single and double garage roofs
- Garage blocks
Properties near Woodsides Meadow may have outbuildings as well as a garage.

Options to consider in Hampton Poyle
Does the roof have to come off? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Why people choose us
- Clear advice on your options
- Domestic and commercial work
- Quotes that spell out the scope
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
Read how we quote or our cost guide.
After the job
The wrapped sheets go to a permitted site, and you get the consignment note.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Let us know where we can park
- Give us a rough size
- File the waste paperwork
What to avoid
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Hampton Poyle, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

- Material and condition
- How much waste there is
