How asbestos garage roof removal works in Shanklin Village
We remove sheets, ridges, fixings and any cement gutters and downpipes, all wrapped for disposal. People often contact us about garages in a row or block and broken sheets after high winds, including downpipes, ridge pieces and cement gutters.
In Shanklin Village, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Shanklin Village questions
Could my house in Shanklin Village contain asbestos?
If your home in Shanklin Village was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work in Shanklin Village despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is generally a short job, though access and condition affect it.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Normally, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.

What we deal with in Shanklin Village
Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Garage conversions
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Garages in a row or block
- Concrete-panel garages
If you let a house with a garage near Belmont station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.
Comparing quotes
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- Suitable insurance for the work
- What paperwork you get
After the job
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.
A few practical points:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- File the waste paperwork
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Avoid these
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Shanklin Village must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
