Asbestos garage roof removal in Hedge End
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Whether it’s garages before a new roof or conversion and old, cracked sheets, we cover cement gutters, corrugated roof sheets and bargeboards.
In a town like Hedge End, garages built with houses from the post-war decades to the 1990s often have cement sheet roofs, which are now brittle with age. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Questions from Hedge End
How far is Hedge End from London?
Hedge End is about 66 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover Hedge End and the area around Hedge End station?
Yes, we cover Hedge End and the area towards Hedge End station, about 1.2 miles north.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
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.
Should you do it yourself?
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.
Where asbestos turns up
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
In older properties, we often see:
- Garages in a row or block
- Garages due a new roof
- Old, cracked sheets
- Lean-to roofs
Garages on busy roads like the A334 and B3033 need loading planned in advance.
