About our asbestos garage roof removal in Mogador
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Typical jobs include garages due a new roof and sheet garages, involving downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters.
In a village like Mogador, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

- Book your roofer in advance
- File the waste paperwork

Options to consider in Mogador
Removal first, then the new roof, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
How we work in Mogador
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Domestic and commercial work
- Identify first, remove only when needed
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Good to know
So you know what to expect:
- Different materials need a different approach
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is generally a separate job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
Common materials
- Roof felt
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Cement wall panels

What it might be made of
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are usually asbestos cement too.
Questions from Mogador
Is asbestos common in Mogador homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Reigate station?
Yes. Reigate station is about 1.6 miles south-east of Mogador, and we cover both.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
