A closer look at the materials
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
Wall panels
Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.
What we deal with in Slaugham
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Carport roofs
- Storm-damaged sheets
- Single garages
- Garages due for demolition
Across Slaugham, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
What happens next
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Give us a rough size
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Things not to do
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Options to consider in Slaugham
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What you get
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- No removal until we know what it is
- Across London and the South East

Can I do it myself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Your questions about garage roof removal in Slaugham
Do you come out to small villages like Slaugham?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
My garage in Slaugham has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
What we do and do not cover
Before booking, note that:
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
