About our asbestos garage roof removal in Nackington
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. We often deal with corrugated roof sheets, ridge pieces and bargeboards, and typical jobs are garages due for demolition and single garages.
In towns and villages like Nackington, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Nackington: your questions answered
Do you work on properties in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you work near Canterbury East station?
Yes, we cover Nackington and the area towards Canterbury East station, about 1.7 miles north.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- How much there is
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Location, parking and any London charges
- How much waste there is
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Sending photos
A few photos can save a site visit:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- A clear close-up
- Labels, if any
- A wide shot showing where the material is

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Materials we deal with
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. We wet them and lower them whole.
Gutters and downpipes
They’re removed whole where possible.
Doing it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
