How asbestos garage roof removal works in Liverton Street
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical materials include bargeboards, ridge pieces and cement wall panels, and people normally contact us about prefab garages with cement walls and double garages.
In a village like Liverton Street, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Liverton Street questions
Is asbestos common in Liverton Street homes?
Any home in Liverton Street built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Liverton Street?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work in Liverton Street?
Yes, we do: our area includes Liverton Street and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
In most cases, no: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Duty holders and landlords in Liverton Street
For managing agents and freeholders in Liverton Street, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Should you do it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
The scope of garage roof removal
Worth knowing before you book:
- Different materials need a different approach
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Ridge pieces
- Roof felt
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
Materials we deal with
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are normally asbestos cement too.
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which can contain asbestos in older products.
After the job
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.
After we have finished:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Avoid these
Keep weight off the roof.
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.

Which option is right?
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
