Asbestos garage roof removal in North Street
The process
Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then take the waste away. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and keeps dust to a minimum. In December, it’s dark in North Street by about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- 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
- Mention any parking restrictions
- Do not disturb the material before we get there
- Find any old asbestos reports

Asbestos garage roof removal near North Street
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. Whether it’s lean-tos and carports and roofs to clear before demolition, we deal with cement wall panels, downpipes and ridge pieces and more.
In towns and villages like North Street, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

FAQs for North Street
My garage in North Street has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover North Street from London?
North Street is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
