Asbestos garage roof removal in Putney
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Putney. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. From sheet garages and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs, we cover corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and cement wall panels and more.
Garages around Putney are often at the end of a garden or in a block off a rear lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Putney
Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Garages due a new roof
- Garages being knocked down
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Pieces of broken roof
For garages on or near the A3 and B306, let us know where we can load.
Before booking anyone
- The documents you’ll receive
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Questions from Putney
My garage in Putney has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work near Putney station?
Yes. Putney station is close to the centre of Putney, and we cover the whole area.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Generally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we will advise.
How do I get a quote?
Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, but most single garages are a short job once set up.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you cover Putney?
We do: our area includes Putney and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.

Materials we deal with
Wall panels
Some garages have cement wall panels as well.
Fixings
Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.
Duty holders and landlords in Putney
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Putney, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Looking after things afterwards
We clear up and check for fragments before we leave.
After we’ve finished:
- File the waste paperwork
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Options to consider in Putney
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. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
