About our asbestos garage roof removal in Pulborough
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. Whether it’s double garages and broken sheets after high winds, we cover cement gutters, cement wall panels and ridge pieces.
In a smaller place like Pulborough, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Pulborough questions
Do you cover Pulborough and the area around Pulborough station?
Yes. Pulborough station is about 0.6 miles west of Pulborough, and we cover both.
Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Generally not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.
Do you cover Pulborough?
Yes. We cover Pulborough and the surrounding area as part of West Sussex. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Generally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
After the job
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the consignment note.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- File the waste paperwork
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
Don’ts
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.

Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Options to consider in Pulborough
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
