Asbestos garage roof removal near Salford
What happens next
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Keep weight off the roof.
Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Asbestos garage roof removal in Salford
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is typically the start of a new roof or conversion. Typical materials include corrugated roof sheets, bargeboards and downpipes, and people typically contact us about lean-tos and carports and old, cracked sheets.
Garages around Salford may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Helpful guides
Questions from Salford
Do you cover Salford and the area around Kingham station?
Yes. Kingham station is about 3.9 miles south-west of Salford, and we cover both.
Do you cover small places like Salford?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Typically not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
What it might be made of
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Responsibilities for owners
If your business premises in Salford were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
What we do and don’t cover
It’s worth knowing what garage roof removal does and doesn’t cover:
- Different materials need a different approach
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
