How asbestos garage roof removal works in Molash
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Whether it’s single garages and brittle, leaking roofs, we cover ridge pieces, downpipes and bargeboards.
In places like Molash, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Things not to do

- Old, cracked sheets
- Block garages
- Broken sheets after high winds
Across Molash, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000.
Questions to ask before you book
- How fibres will be kept down
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- Suitable insurance for the work
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
