Asbestos garage roof removal in Hilden Park
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Hilden Park
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. We often deal with downpipes, cement wall panels and ridge pieces, and people generally contact us about single and double garage roofs and concrete-panel garages.
In towns and villages like Hilden Park, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Materials we deal with
Ridge pieces
The ridge pieces are often the same material.
Corrugated sheets
Most garage roofs are corrugated cement sheets. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
What we do and don’t cover
To be clear about the scope:
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is generally a separate job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

What happens
Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, ready for disposal at a permitted site. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. In December, it’s dark in Hilden Park by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

FAQs for Hilden Park
Are garage roofs in Hilden Park normally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover small places like Hilden Park?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically aren’t licensed.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
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.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Hilden Park
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Sheet garages
- Carport roofs
For rented homes with garages close to Hildenborough station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.
