Asbestos garage roof removal for Mayfield properties
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Mayfield tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. We often deal with corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and downpipes, and people usually contact us about garage blocks and brittle, leaking roofs.
In towns and villages like Mayfield, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Materials, one by one
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are generally asbestos cement too.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
For businesses and landlords in Mayfield
If your business premises in Mayfield were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Mayfield questions
Do you come out to small villages like Mayfield?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
My garage in Mayfield has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Generally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Do not pressure-wash it first.
Step by step
In strong wind or heavy rain, we may have to stop, for safety. Parking close by makes the day easier. Late-December sunset in Mayfield is about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
