Asbestos garage roof removal for Nuthurst properties
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. From garages before a new roof or conversion and garages in a row or block, we deal with cement wall panels, downpipes and bargeboards and more.
In places like Nuthurst, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

Responsibilities for owners
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
How we work
Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. In December, it’s dark in Nuthurst by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- 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
Before we arrive
- Tell us about anything that’s already damaged
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- The category of work
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- What the material is and its state
- How much there is
Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Sending photos
Photos often save us a visit:
- Street parking nearby
- Approximate dimensions
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Your options compared
What about painting or overcladding? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. See our guide to repair, paint or replace. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
What you get
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Homes, rented property and workplaces

Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
