About our asbestos garage roof removal in Parker's Green
Many garages built before 2000, in Parker's Green and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, and give you the waste paperwork. We often deal with cement wall panels, downpipes and cement gutters, and people normally contact us about storm-damaged sheets and garages due a new roof.
In a village like Parker's Green, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Parker's Green: your questions answered
Do you cover Parker's Green and the area around Tonbridge station?
Yes. Tonbridge station is about 2.4 miles south-west of Parker's Green, and we cover both.
Do older homes in Parker's Green have asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
How we price garage roof removal
The cost depends on:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The type of material and its condition
- Access to the area
- The size of the job
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
What to photograph
Photo tips:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- The access route
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Approximate dimensions
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Materials, one by one

- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
