Asbestos garage roof removal near Puddledock
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. Whether it’s garages being knocked down and carport roofs, we cover cement wall panels, ridge pieces and downpipes.
In London neighbourhoods like Puddledock, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Puddledock questions
Is asbestos common in Puddledock homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
My garage in Puddledock has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

If you let a house with a garage near Edenbridge station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.

Which option is right?
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Materials we deal with
Fixings
Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
If you run a business from older premises in Puddledock, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
