Asbestos garage roof removal in Maze Hill
Removing cement roof sheets is usually non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. We often deal with ridge pieces, downpipes and cement wall panels, and people normally contact us about garages before a new roof or conversion and single garages.
In Maze Hill, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Choosing the right option
Paint or overclad instead? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. See our guide to repair, paint or replace. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
Why us?
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Records for your files
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Identify first, remove only when needed

Materials we deal with
Gutters and downpipes
Cement gutters and downpipes are common.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
Typical jobs in Maze Hill include:
- Double garages
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Garages in a row or block
- Pieces of broken roof
Around Creekside Discovery Centre, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores.
What to look for in a quote

For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Maze Hill must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
If you run a business from older premises in Maze Hill, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
What affects the price in Maze Hill
These are the main things that affect the price of garage roof removal:
- The quantity or area
- What the material is and its state
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Disposal costs
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Maze Hill questions
Do you work in Maze Hill despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.
Are garage roofs in Maze Hill normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Typically, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
How long will the job take?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.
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 if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
The scope of garage roof removal
The usual limits are:
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job
- Different materials need a different approach
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.
