Asbestos garage roof removal for Poffley End
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Poffley End
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Poffley End. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. From sheet garages and broken sheets after high winds, we deal with cement wall panels, ridge pieces and downpipes.
In a village like Poffley End, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- How easy it is to reach
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- The quantity or area
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
Photos that help

For businesses and landlords in Poffley End
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Limits to be aware of
A few things to be aware of:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job
- Different materials need a different approach
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we deal with
- Fixings and bolts
- Roof felt
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bargeboards
- Cement wall panels
- Ridge pieces
Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
What happens next
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
A few practical points:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Tell us about parking and access
- Give us a rough size
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
Don’ts

Your questions about garage roof removal in Poffley End
Do you cover small places like Poffley End?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work near Finstock station?
Yes, we cover Poffley End and the area towards Finstock station, about 3 miles north.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Can the roof be overclad?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.
Choosing the right option
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. Every quote says whether VAT is included.
Why choose us
- Accredited laboratory results
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
