Asbestos garage roof removal near Marylebone
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Marylebone. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. Common materials are bargeboards, cement wall panels and ridge pieces, and typical jobs are garage conversions and concrete-panel garages.
In London neighbourhoods like Marylebone, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need.

Choosing the right option
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and there is a real risk of falling through the roof. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Responsibilities for owners
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Afterwards
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Let us know where we can park
- Plan the new roof before removal
Don’ts
Never cut or break the sheets.
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Marylebone
Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
People usually contact us about one of these:
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Garage blocks
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Brittle, leaking roofs
In Marylebone, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, often with cement roofs.

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Marylebone
My garage in Marylebone has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can you work in Marylebone with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
