Asbestos garage roof removal near Old Dean
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. From single garages and lean-tos and carports, we cover bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels and more.
In places like Old Dean, many garages are detached and reached by a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Old Dean: your questions answered
Are garage roofs in Old Dean typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work near Camberley station?
Yes, we cover Old Dean and the area towards Camberley station, about 1.5 miles south-west.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
How long will the job take?
A single garage is generally a short job, though access and condition affect it.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- How much waste there is
- Material and condition
- Licensed or non-licensed
Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:
- The access route
- An idea of size
- A picture of the whole area
- The parking area
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Weighing up your options
Does the roof have to come off? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
