Asbestos garage roof removal in North Boarhunt
An old asbestos cement garage roof in North Boarhunt tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. People often contact us about sheet garages and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs, involving downpipes, cement wall panels and cement gutters.
In a village like North Boarhunt, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

What we deal with in North Boarhunt
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Garages due a new roof
- Concrete-panel garages
- Carport roofs
- Garages in a row or block
Properties near St Clair's Meadow may have outbuildings as well as a garage, which can be dealt with together.

Looking after things afterwards

Going forward:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Don’ts
Keep weight off the roof.
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Which option is right?
Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.

A closer look at the materials
Gutters and downpipes
They’re removed whole where possible.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
How it works
Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. Garage roof removal in North Boarhunt is planned around daylight: sunset is about 4:00pm in December and about 9:20pm in June.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We check the roof material first
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
Getting ready
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive

North Boarhunt questions
Do you cover small places like North Boarhunt?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Could my house in North Boarhunt contain asbestos?
Any home in North Boarhunt built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to 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 generally needed.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you run a business from older premises in North Boarhunt, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Good to know
We are upfront about what’s included:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is generally a separate job
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Common materials
- Bargeboards
- Fixings and bolts
- Ridge pieces
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels

The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:

Photos that help

- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Cracks or breaks
- Approximate dimensions
You’ll get a written quote. Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details, including any survey or test you already have.
