Asbestos garage roof removal near Heath End
Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Mention your plans when you get in touch. We often deal with corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and cement wall panels, and people generally contact us about garages in a row or block and old, cracked sheets.
In places like Heath End, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

FAQs for Heath End
How far is Heath End from London?
Heath End is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Heath End have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Heath End may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site.
Step by step
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Heath End is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking and access
- Make sure we can get to the area
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
