For businesses and landlords in Harrow
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Harrow, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Can I do it myself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Looking after things afterwards
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
After we’ve finished:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Let us know where we can park
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Don’ts
Keep weight off the roof.
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Nearby places to Harrow
Harrow: your questions answered
Could my house in Harrow contain asbestos?
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.
Are garage roofs in Harrow normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
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 cover Harrow?
Yes, Harrow is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
How do I get a quote?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you can’t be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
What we do and do not cover
Before booking, note that:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- High winds can delay roof work
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Step by step
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. We begin by confirming exactly what we are doing. In December, it’s dark in Harrow by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Send photos of the garage and the roof
- We confirm the material, testing a sample if needed
- You get a written quote
- We remove the sheets carefully
- The sheets are wrapped and taken away, and you get the consignment note
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the way to the work area
- Mention any damage before we arrive
- Warn neighbours if needed
