How asbestos garage roof removal works in Osterley
We remove sheets, ridges, fixings and any cement gutters and downpipes, wrapped and labelled ready for disposal. Typical materials include ridge pieces, bargeboards and downpipes, and typical jobs are garage conversions and pieces of broken roof.
In Osterley, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

What we deal with in Osterley
Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Single garages
- Sheet garages
- Brittle, leaking roofs

What it might be made of
Gutters and downpipes
We take them down in whole lengths.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
After the job
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.
After we’ve finished:
- Keep pets and children inside
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Tell us about parking and access
What to avoid
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.

Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
How it works
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing, so there’s no confusion. We plan garage roof jobs in Osterley for daylight: sunset is about 3:55pm in December and about 9:20pm in June.
