Asbestos garage roof removal near Roehampton
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Common materials are ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels, and typical jobs are garages due a new roof and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs.
Garages around Roehampton are often at the end of a garden or in a block off a rear lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. We only recommend work that’s needed.

DIY and asbestos
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Choosing the right option
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

- Work done to the regulations
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Questions from Roehampton
Can you work in Roehampton with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Could my house in Roehampton contain asbestos?
If your home in Roehampton was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
How long will the job take?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, but most single garages are a short job once set up.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically are not licensed.
