How asbestos garage roof removal works in Paynes Green

We remove single and double garage roofs, garages in rows and blocks, lean-tos and carports across Paynes Green. Tell us the size and send photos. Whether it’s carport roofs and garages in a row or block, we cover bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes and more.

In areas like Paynes Green, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Materials, one by one

Fixings

Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.

Gutters and downpipes

They’re removed whole where possible.

What happens next

The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.

A few practical points:

  • Keep pets and children inside
  • Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
  • Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
  • Plan the new roof before removal

Things not to do

If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

Your options compared

Paint or overclad instead? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. Our guide covers the options. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

Why us?

  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces
  • Clear written quotes

See our prices page or our cost guide.

Limits to be aware of

Worth knowing before you book:

  • Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
  • Re-roofing is normally separate
  • Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

How it works

On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. We’ll tell you when we’ve finished and what you’ll receive afterwards. In December, it’s dark in Paynes Green by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

Paynes Green questions

Do you cover Paynes Green and the area around Ockley station?

Yes. Ockley station is about 2.1 miles north-east of Paynes Green, and we cover both.

Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

What happens to the old roof sheets?

They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

Do you cover Paynes Green?

Yes, we do: Paynes Green is within the area we cover in Surrey. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.

Can you remove the whole garage?

We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

Duty holders and landlords in Paynes Green

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Should you do it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

How we price garage roof removal

What drives the price:

  • How easy it is to reach
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • The type of material and its condition
  • Parking and access charges

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
