Asbestos help in Hurlingham
Asbestos garage roof removal near Hurlingham
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. We often deal with downpipes, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets, and typical jobs are block garages and brittle, leaking roofs.
In Hurlingham, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Typical garage roof jobs in Hurlingham
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Garages in a row or block
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Double garages
- Garage conversions
In Hurlingham, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, often with cement roofs.

What else we do in Hurlingham
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Choosing the right option
What about painting or overcladding? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. Our guide covers the options. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

Hurlingham questions
My garage in Hurlingham has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Can you work in Hurlingham with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
How can I get a price?
Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
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.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
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.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Limits to be aware of
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is usually a separate job
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- High winds can delay roof work
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Cement wall panels
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Fixings and bolts
- Gutters and downpipes
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
The process
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. Late-December sunset in Hurlingham is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Describe the garage
- We plan the access and the waste
- We time it around your roofer
- We take the roof off safely
- You get the waste paperwork
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any damage before we arrive

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Disposal costs
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- How many samples are needed
Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send:
- An idea of size
- An overall view
- A close-up from a safe distance
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

After we’ve finished:
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs

Things not to do
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.
