Asbestos garage roof removal near Morden
Asbestos garage roof removal for Morden properties
You can’t stand on an asbestos cement roof: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. From block garages and concrete-panel garages, we cover downpipes, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets and more.
In Morden, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Should you do it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Limits to be aware of

After the job
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Let us know where we can park
- Give us a rough size
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep pets and children inside
Things not to do
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Questions from Morden
Do you work in Morden despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you work near St Helier station?
Yes, we cover Morden, including the streets around St Helier station.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
