Why people call us in South Kenton
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Lean-to roofs
- Garage conversions
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Single and double garage roofs
Around Masons Field, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, which can be dealt with together.

DIY and asbestos
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
What’s included, and what is not
Here’s what garage roof removal covers, and what it doesn’t:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- Different materials need a different approach
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Ridge pieces
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
Afterwards
The wrapped sheets go to a permitted site, and you receive the paperwork.
Some practical advice:

- Tell us about parking and access
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
Don’ts
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Never cut or break the sheets.

What else we do in South Kenton
For landlords, agents and businesses
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
South Kenton questions
Are garage roofs in South Kenton normally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work near South Kenton station?
Yes, we cover South Kenton, including the streets around South Kenton station.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Generally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
How it works
Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. Garage roof removal in South Kenton is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
Getting ready
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
