Materials, one by one
Ridge pieces
We take them off with the sheets.
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
Looking after things afterwards
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
Keeping things safe:
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Book your roofer in advance
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
What to avoid
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
The process
Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, ready for disposal at a permitted site. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and keeps dust to a minimum. In December, it’s dark in Hinxhill Park by about 3:50pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

Hinxhill Park: your questions answered
My garage in Hinxhill Park has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How far is Hinxhill Park from London?
Hinxhill Park is about 50 miles from central London, well within our area.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Do you cover Hinxhill Park?
Yes, we do: our area includes Hinxhill Park and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Normally not: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
