About our asbestos garage roof removal in Long Sutton
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they won’t take a person’s weight. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. People often contact us about double garages and lean-to roofs, including downpipes, bargeboards and ridge pieces.
In a village like Long Sutton, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

What affects the price in Long Sutton

Include any existing survey or test when you ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Weighing up your options
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and there is a real risk of falling through the roof. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.
How we work in Long Sutton

Read our prices page or published price ranges.
Doing it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Long Sutton
My garage in Long Sutton has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
How far is Long Sutton from London?
Long Sutton is about 41 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
