About our asbestos garage roof removal in Heronden
Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so have the replacement roof planned first. Mention your plans when you get in touch. From concrete-panel garages and pieces of broken roof, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and cement gutters.
In a village like Heronden, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Typical garage roof jobs in Heronden
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, so they become brittle.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Lean-tos and carports
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Double garages
- Sheet garages
Around Monk's Wall nature reserve, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, which can be dealt with together.

Choosing the right option
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
How we work in Heronden
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Identify first, remove only when needed

After the job
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Keeping things safe:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Let neighbours know beforehand
Avoid these
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
