About our asbestos garage roof removal in Mayes Green
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. People often contact us about garages in a row or block and single and double garage roofs, involving cement wall panels, downpipes and ridge pieces.
In a village like Mayes Green, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

- Street parking nearby
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Labels, if any
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you are planning. Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
