How asbestos garage roof removal works in Hillyfields

We remove single and double garage roofs, garages in rows and blocks, lean-tos and carports across Hillyfields. Photos and rough sizes help us quote. People often contact us about garage blocks and double garages, involving ridge pieces, bargeboards and cement wall panels.

Homes in areas like Hillyfields often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs, which can be removed together. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Choosing the right option

Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Why people choose us

  • Records for your files
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Houses, flats and business premises

What we deal with in Hillyfields

Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:

  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Garages due a new roof
  • Double garages
  • Brittle, leaking roofs

Properties near Testwood Lakes may have outbuildings as well as a garage, so it can make sense to do them at once.

What to look for in a quote

  • The documents you’ll receive
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • Any exclusions

What to check before booking

Looking after things afterwards

File the waste paperwork: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.

Once we are done:

  • Photos of the garage and the way in help
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof

Avoid these

If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.

How it works

Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, ready for disposal at a permitted site. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we’ll do before we start. Late-December sunset in Hillyfields is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

  1. Tell us the size of the garage and the access
  2. We plan the access and the waste
  3. We agree a date that fits your new roof
  4. We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up and send the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Mention any damage before we arrive
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Let us know where we can park

Common questions in Hillyfields

Do older homes in Hillyfields have asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

My garage in Hillyfields has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.

How do I get a quote?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

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 take a sample without going on the roof.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes vary because of:

  • The category of work
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • Parking and access charges
  • The type of material and its condition

Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Sending photos

The most useful photos are:

  • Labels, if any
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Approximate dimensions
  • Cracks or breaks

Every job is quoted in writing. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page with the details.

Materials, one by one

Corrugated sheets

The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.

Gutters and downpipes

Older garages often have cement gutters and downpipes.

Responsibilities for owners

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Good to know

A few things to be aware of:

  • Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
  • Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
  • We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

Materials we see

  • Corrugated cement sheets
  • Ridge pieces
  • Roof felt
  • Fixings and bolts
  • Cement wall panels
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Bargeboards
