Asbestos garage roof removal near Mill Green

Asbestos garage roof removal near Mill Green

The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. People often contact us about double garages and garage blocks, including cement gutters, downpipes and bargeboards.

In a village like Mill Green, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

For managing agents and freeholders in Mill Green, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.

Your options compared

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. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Why choose us

  • No removal until we know what it is
  • Reports and results you can share
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
  • Accredited laboratory results

Take a look at our prices page and the cost guide.

Can I do it myself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, 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.

A closer look at the materials

Corrugated sheets

The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.

Ridge pieces

Your questions about garage roof removal in Mill Green

Do you come out to small villages like Mill Green?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you cover Mill Green from London?

Mill Green is about 50 miles from central London, well within our area.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.

Do you take down the walls too?

Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?

If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you cannot be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.

How can I get a price?

Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

What we do and do not cover

So you know what to expect:

  • Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
  • Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
  • If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Why people call us in Mill Green

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Garage conversions
  • Pieces of broken roof
  • Carport roofs

In Mill Green, many garages and sheds were added decades ago.

Questions to ask before you book

  • VAT, clearly stated
  • How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note

Choosing an asbestos contractor

What affects the price in Mill Green

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • Location, parking and any London charges

A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
