How asbestos garage roof removal works in Loosley Row
Many garages built before 2000, in Loosley Row and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. Typical jobs include brittle, leaking roofs and garages in a row or block, involving cement gutters, bargeboards and cement wall panels.
In areas like Loosley Row, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

The scope of garage roof removal
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Different materials need a different approach
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
Common materials
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
- Ridge pieces
- Fixings and bolts
- Roof felt
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Bargeboards
Materials we deal with
Wall panels
Some garages have cement wall panels as well.
Fixings
Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.
Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Questions from Loosley Row
Do you come out to small villages like Loosley Row?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do older homes in Loosley Row have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Loosley Row can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is my garage roof in Loosley Row asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you can’t be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Your options compared
Paint or overclad instead? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. See our guide to repair, paint or replace. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
