Looking after things afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Tell us about parking and access
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
Avoid these
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Manor Park
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical jobs include garages before a new roof or conversion and storm-damaged sheets, including cement wall panels, cement gutters and bargeboards.
Garages around Manor Park 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. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

A closer look at the materials
Fixings
Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.
Ridge pieces
They’re removed with the sheets and wrapped together.
Responsibilities for owners
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Which option is right?
DIY garage roof removal? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the roof is fragile, so there’s a serious falls risk too. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Manor Park questions
My garage in Manor Park 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.
Can you work in Manor Park with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
