How asbestos garage roof removal works in Shopwyke
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is normally the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s double garages and block garages, we cover bargeboards, ridge pieces and cement gutters.
In towns and villages like Shopwyke, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Shopwyke
Could my house in Shopwyke contain asbestos?
If your home in Shopwyke 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 cover Shopwyke from London?
We cover Shopwyke, about 53 miles from central London.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
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.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
How do I get a quote?
Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Normally, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
After we’ve finished in Shopwyke
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
Once we’re done:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Give us a rough size
- Plan the new roof before removal
- File the waste paperwork
Don’ts
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Keep weight off the roof.

Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
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.
Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
