Asbestos help in Poyle
Asbestos garage roof removal near Poyle
You cannot stand on an asbestos cement roof: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. We often deal with cement wall panels, corrugated roof sheets and bargeboards, and typical jobs are roofs to clear before demolition and garage blocks.
Garages around Poyle may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

What we deal with in Poyle

You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Garage blocks
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Double garages
- Broken sheets after high winds
Across Poyle, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.
Questions to ask before booking
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Waste disposal and the consignment note
- The documents you’ll receive
- Which areas and materials are covered
After the job
Share the paperwork with your builder.
To avoid problems in future:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Give us a rough size
- File the waste paperwork
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What we do and don’t cover
We are upfront about what’s included:
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor

Poyle questions
My garage in Poyle has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Poyle from London?
Poyle is about 18 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
