Asbestos garage roof removal near Shabbington
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Removal is often the first step to a new roof or a garage conversion. Whether it’s garage blocks and concrete-panel garages, we deal with downpipes, cement wall panels and ridge pieces and more.
In places like Shabbington, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Questions from Shabbington
Are garage roofs in Shabbington normally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover small places like Shabbington?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is my garage roof in Shabbington asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. A sample test will tell you.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.
How we price garage roof removal
Our quotes take into account:
- The type of material and its condition
- Travel and parking
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- How easy it is to reach
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
What to photograph
Photos often save us a visit:
- The parking area
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- An overall view
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.
Keeping things safe:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Book your roofer in advance
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- File the waste paperwork
What to avoid
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Never cut or break the sheets.
