How asbestos garage roof removal works in South Nutfield
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. People often contact us about pieces of broken roof and garages in a row or block, involving cement wall panels, bargeboards and ridge pieces.
Rural garages near South Nutfield are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Your questions about garage roof removal in South Nutfield
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Are garage roofs in South Nutfield normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you cover South Nutfield?
Yes. We cover South Nutfield and the surrounding area as part of Surrey. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Doing it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Asbestos waste cannot 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 options compared
Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you are not planning work, it can stay; cracks, leaks or a conversion generally mean removal. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

After we’ve finished in South Nutfield
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Some practical advice:
- Give us a rough size
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Book your roofer in advance
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
