We remove sheets, ridges, fixings and any cement gutters and downpipes, wrapped and labelled ready for disposal. People often contact us about garages being knocked down and lean-to roofs, including cement wall panels, bargeboards and downpipes.
Rural garages near Seasalter are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

The process

- Describe the garage
- We work out how to reach the roof safely
- We time it around your roofer
- We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
- We clean up and send the paperwork
Before we arrive
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive

DIY and asbestos
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Seasalter must 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.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Seasalter questions
Do you cover Seasalter from London?
Seasalter is about 48 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover small places like Seasalter?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
Do you work in Seasalter?
We do: our area includes Seasalter and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

The usual limits are:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
