Asbestos garage roof removal near Mildmay
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they will not take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. From old, cracked sheets and garages being knocked down, we deal with bargeboards, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets.
In London neighbourhoods like Mildmay, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, so check who owns the block. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Prices and what affects them
The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:
- How much waste there is
- Access to the area
- Material and condition
- Parking and access charges
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
What to photograph
A few photos can save a site visit:
- Damaged areas
- How we’d reach it
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Approximate dimensions
For a quote, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.
Materials we deal with
Gutters and downpipes
They’re removed whole where possible.
Wall panels
Some garages have cement wall panels as well.
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Which option is right?
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
Why choose us
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
- Covering London and the South East
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
See how we quote and the cost guide.
Afterwards
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Let us know where we can park
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Don’ts
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
How we work
Sheets are wrapped and labelled as they’re removed, ready for disposal at a permitted site. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and use controls to keep dust down. In December, it’s dark in Mildmay by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

Questions from Mildmay
Could my house in Mildmay contain asbestos?
If your home in Mildmay was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work near Dalston Kingsland station?
Yes, we cover Mildmay, including the streets around Dalston Kingsland station.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, but most single garages are a short job once set up.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
