Asbestos garage roof removal in North End

Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Mention your plans when you get in touch. From prefab garages with cement walls and garages due for demolition, we cover cement wall panels, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets.

In parts of London like North End, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, so check who owns the block. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

What we do and don’t cover

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
  • We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is usually a separate job
  • Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

Materials we see

  • Fixings and bolts
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Ridge pieces
  • Cement wall panels
  • Roof felt
  • Corrugated cement sheets
  • Bargeboards

Your options compared

Be wary of a price that is much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Why us?

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Houses, flats and business premises
  • Identify first, remove only when needed
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

Should you do it yourself?

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

FAQs for North End

Do you work near Kensington Olympia station?

Yes, we cover North End and the area towards Kensington Olympia station, about 0.5 miles north.

My garage in North End has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?

Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.

Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?

Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.

What if my house is newer?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.

Prices and what affects them

These are the main things that affect the price of garage roof removal:

  • The size of the job
  • How easy it is to reach
  • How much waste there is
  • The type of material and its condition

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

Photos that help

When you send photos, these help most:

  • Cracks or breaks
  • Labels, if any
  • A rough size or measurement
  • Street parking nearby

Photos from a safe distance help: send them through our contact page.

What happens next

The wrapped sheets go to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.

  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
