About our asbestos garage roof removal in Oliver's Battery
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. From garages before a new roof or conversion and prefab garages with cement walls, we deal with ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters.
Rural garages near Oliver's Battery are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

What else we do in Oliver's Battery
Afterwards
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
Some practical advice:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
Things not to do
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Choosing the right option
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Why us?
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- Records for your files
- Clear advice on your options
- Across London and the South East

DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Questions from Oliver's Battery
Do you cover Oliver's Battery from London?
We cover Oliver's Battery, about 63 miles from central London.
Do you cover small places like Oliver's Battery?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Normally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
