Can I do it myself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
A closer look at the materials
Gutters and downpipes
They’re removed whole where possible.
Wall panels
Walls come down the same way.
What we deal with in Hillway
Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Garages in a row or block
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
Older houses in Hillway, near Bembridge Methodist Church or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Hillway
Do you work near Brading station?
Yes. Brading station is about 1.8 miles west of Hillway, and we cover both.
Do you cover small places like Hillway?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Send us some photos.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
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. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
