About our asbestos garage roof removal in Littleworth
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. From concrete-panel garages and carport roofs, we deal with ridge pieces, cement gutters and downpipes and more.
Rural garages near Littleworth are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Should you do it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Why people call us in Littleworth
Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Garage blocks
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Lean-tos and carports
- Single garages
Around Knepp Wildland, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores.
Before you book anyone
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof

- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
What happens
Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, then loaded for disposal. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. In December, it’s dark in Littleworth by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Tell us the size of the garage and the access
- We work out how to reach the roof safely
- We agree a date that fits your new roof
- We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
- We clean up and send the paperwork
How to prepare
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Move things out of the way carefully

Helpful guides
Littleworth: your questions answered
Do you come out to small villages like Littleworth?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Littleworth contain asbestos?
If your home in Littleworth was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Generally not: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, but it must still be done properly.
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.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you can’t be sure by looking. We can test a sample.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
