Asbestos garage roof removal near Margery
Asbestos garage roof removal in Margery
Many garages built before 2000, in Margery 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. People often contact us about block garages and lean-tos and carports, involving corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and cement wall panels.
In towns and villages like Margery, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Margery questions
Do you cover small places like Margery?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Margery and the area around Reigate station?
Yes. Reigate station is about 1.4 miles south of Margery, and we cover both.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
How can I get a price?
Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.

Doing it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
For businesses and landlords in Margery
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
If you run a business from older premises in Margery, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
