Asbestos garage roof removal near Marden's Hill

Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is generally the start of a new roof or conversion. Typical jobs include lean-to roofs and single and double garage roofs, involving bargeboards, downpipes and cement gutters.

In a village like Marden's Hill, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Common questions in Marden's Hill

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Could my house in Marden's Hill contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Can you remove the whole garage?

Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.

How long does it take to remove a garage roof?

Size, access and condition decide, but most single garages are a short job once set up.

Limits to be aware of

Some limits to bear in mind:

  • Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
  • We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is generally a separate job
  • High winds can delay roof work

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

What we deal with

  • Fixings and bolts
  • Corrugated cement sheets
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Roof felt
  • Ridge pieces
  • Bargeboards
  • Cement wall panels

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

How we price garage roof removal

The cost depends on:

  • The quantity or area
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • Licensed or non-licensed

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Choosing the right option

Removal first, then the new roof, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Why people choose us

  • Waste paperwork for every removal
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Domestic and commercial work
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

Read how we quote and published price ranges.

Responsibilities for owners

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
