Asbestos garage roof removal in Nash Street
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you can’t be certain by looking. Whether it’s garages in a row or block and sheet garages, we deal with bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.
In towns and villages like Nash Street, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Why people call us in Nash Street
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Double garages
- Lean-tos and carports
- Pieces of broken roof
- Concrete-panel garages
Around Sawyers Lake, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once.

After the job
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
To avoid problems in future:
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Give us a rough size
Don’ts
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Materials, one by one
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

Questions from Nash Street
Do you cover small places like Nash Street?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Nash Street from London?
Nash Street is about 21 miles from central London, well within our area.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
How long will the job take?
A single garage is typically a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
How it works
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. Garage roof removal in Nash Street is planned around daylight: sunset is about 3:50pm in December and about 9:20pm in June.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
How to prepare

- Keep the area clear of children and pets
