Asbestos garage roof removal near Limmo Peninsula

Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is usually the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s garages in a row or block and carport roofs, we cover corrugated roof sheets, ridge pieces and bargeboards and more.

Garages around Limmo Peninsula are often at the end of a garden or in a block off a rear lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Where asbestos turns up

Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Garages before a new roof or conversion
  • Single and double garage roofs
  • Old, cracked sheets
  • Garage blocks

Around Lavender Pond, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • What paperwork you get
  • Waste disposal and the consignment note

A closer look at the materials

Wall panels

Some garages have cement wall panels as well.

Fixings

Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.

Weighing up your options

Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Why people choose us

  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Covering London and the South East
  • No removal until we know what it is

Your questions about garage roof removal in Limmo Peninsula

Are garage roofs in Limmo Peninsula usually asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Do you work in Limmo Peninsula despite London parking restrictions?

Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?

Typically not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

When can you start?

We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.

After we have finished:

  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
  • Photos of the garage and the way in help

Things not to do

Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
