How asbestos garage roof removal works in Pinewood Village
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they won’t take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Typical materials include cement gutters, ridge pieces and downpipes, and people typically contact us about garages in a row or block and roofs to clear before demolition.
Homes in places like Pinewood Village often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Common questions in Pinewood Village
Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Are garage roofs in Pinewood Village usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.
Is my garage roof in Pinewood Village asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Limits to be aware of
A few things to be aware of:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Ridge pieces
Choosing the right option
Does the roof have to come off? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; cracks, leaks or a conversion normally mean removal. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Why us?
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
- Clear advice on your options
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
Read our prices page and published price ranges.
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
What else we do in Pinewood Village
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Looking after things afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it’s useful when you sell.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Give us a rough size
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
What to avoid
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
The process
Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, then loaded for disposal. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere.
