About our asbestos garage roof removal in Sidley
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you cannot be certain by looking. Whether it’s concrete-panel garages and block garages, we deal with cement wall panels, bargeboards and downpipes and more.
In Sidley, a garage may come with sheds or lean-tos roofed the same way, which can be removed together. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Afterwards
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Book your roofer in advance
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Things not to do
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Keep weight off the roof.
Can I do it myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
A closer look at the materials
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are generally asbestos cement too.
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Step by step
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. In December, it’s dark in Sidley by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

Sidley questions
Do you cover Sidley from London?
Sidley is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.
My garage in Sidley has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically aren’t licensed.
Do you cover Sidley?
Yes, we do: Sidley is within the area we cover in East Sussex. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
