About our asbestos garage roof removal in Ruislip Manor
Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so have the replacement roof planned first. Mention your plans when you get in touch. Typical jobs include pieces of broken roof and double garages, involving bargeboards, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets.
Garages around Ruislip Manor are often at the end of a garden or in a block off a rear lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

FAQs for Ruislip Manor
Do you work in Ruislip Manor despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.
My garage in Ruislip Manor 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.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can sample it safely from the edge.
How long will the job take?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
What happens
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves. The work area is kept clear while we are working. Late-December sunset in Ruislip Manor is about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
- We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
- The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note
Before we arrive
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What affects the price in Ruislip Manor
The cost depends on:
- The survey scope
- Waste quantity and disposal
- What the material is and its state
- How much there is
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
Photos that help
A few photos can save a site visit:
- The access route
- Labels, if any
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Damaged areas
To get a quote, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.
Afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Once we’re done:
- Let us know where we can park
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Avoid these
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Ruislip Manor
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which need careful clearing.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Garages due a new roof

If you let a house with a garage near West Ruislip station, check what the roof is made of before arranging repairs.
