Asbestos garage roof removal in Holton Hill
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they will not take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Typical jobs include garages due for demolition and garage blocks, involving corrugated roof sheets, bargeboards and cement gutters.
In places like Holton Hill, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Holton Hill questions
Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover Holton Hill from London?
We cover Holton Hill, about 40 miles from central London.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Typically, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Send us some photos.
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Good to know
Worth knowing before you book:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we see
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
Which option is right?
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
