About our asbestos garage roof removal in Hatford
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they won’t take a person’s weight. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Common materials are cement wall panels, cement gutters and bargeboards, and typical jobs are storm-damaged sheets and carport roofs.
Garages around Hatford may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Materials we deal with
Fixings
Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Corrugated sheets
Sheets are wrapped for disposal.
After we’ve finished in Hatford
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
After we have finished:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Plan the new roof before removal
What to avoid
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Which option is right?
Removal first, then the new roof, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Questions from Hatford
Do you cover small places like Hatford?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
My garage in Hatford has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
