Asbestos garage roof removal in Ifold
We remove single and double garage roofs, garages in rows and blocks, lean-tos and carports across Ifold. Tell us the size and send photos. We often deal with corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and bargeboards, and typical jobs are garages in a row or block and single and double garage roofs.
In a village like Ifold, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We only recommend work that’s needed.

Weighing up your options
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Looking after things afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
After the job, keep these in mind:

- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep pets and children inside
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Questions from Ifold
Are garage roofs in Ifold typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Ifold from London?
We cover Ifold, about 35 miles from central London.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Usually, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Generally not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
