Asbestos garage roof removal in Iping
Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so have the replacement roof planned first. Tell us your plans when you ask for a quote. Common materials are downpipes, cement gutters and bargeboards, and people generally contact us about pieces of broken roof and garages being knocked down.
Rural garages near Iping 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.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Iping
Do you cover Iping from London?
Iping is about 46 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos common in Iping homes?
Any home in Iping built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Normally, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Send us some photos.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
How do I get a quote?
Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
What’s included, and what is not
So you know what to expect:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is typically a separate job
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- High winds can delay roof work
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Bargeboards
- Fixings and bolts
- Gutters and downpipes
- Roof felt
- Cement wall panels
- Ridge pieces
- Corrugated cement sheets
Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Typical garage roof jobs in Iping
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which need careful clearing.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Carport roofs
Older houses in Iping, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

- Book your roofer in advance

Things not to do
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
