Service details

Asbestos garage roof removal near South Croydon

Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Typical jobs include prefab garages with cement walls and lean-tos and carports, including corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and downpipes.

In parts of London like South Croydon, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, so check who owns the block. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

A closer look at the materials

Wall panels

Some garages have cement wall panels as well.

Ridge pieces

The ridge pieces are often the same material.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in South Croydon, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

South Croydon questions

Do you work near Sanderstead station?

Yes, we cover South Croydon, including the streets around Sanderstead station.

My garage in South Croydon has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.

Do you cover South Croydon?

We do: South Croydon is within the area we cover in Greater London. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.

Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?

Normally not: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.

Where do the sheets go?

They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.

My garage is in a row: can you still do it?

Typically, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
