Asbestos garage roof removal in Holloway
What happens next
The wrapped sheets go to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.
Some practical advice:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
What to avoid
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Asbestos garage roof removal for Holloway properties
You cannot stand on an asbestos cement roof: they won’t take a person’s weight. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Common materials are downpipes, bargeboards and corrugated roof sheets, and typical jobs are carport roofs and garage blocks.
Rural garages near Holloway are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. We only recommend work that is needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Holloway questions
Do you cover Holloway from London?
We cover Holloway, about 30 miles from central London.
Do you work near Furze Platt station?
Yes, we cover Holloway and the area towards Furze Platt station, about 2.7 miles north-east.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
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.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Duty holders and landlords in Holloway
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Doing it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Why people call us in Holloway
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Single and double garage roofs
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Sheet garages
Near open spaces such as Carpenter's Wood, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.
What your quote should include

- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- If the price includes VAT
Good to know
Before you book, note that:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is generally a separate job
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
