What we deal with in St Denys
Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and repairs on old sheets rarely last long.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Single garages
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Sheet garages
Garages on busy roads like the A335 and A3035 need loading planned in advance.
What to look for in a quote
- The documents you will receive
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- VAT, clearly stated
What it costs
What drives the price:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- What the material is and its state
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
What to photograph
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- How we’d reach it
- A picture of the whole area
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Approximate dimensions
Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Common questions in St Denys
Are garage roofs in St Denys typically asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you cover St Denys from London?
We cover St Denys, about 69 miles from central London.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

Asbestos garage roofs around St Denys
St Denys is about 1 mile north-east of Southampton, in Southampton. For garage roof jobs in St Denys, tell us about parking and access. We work in 40 places in Southampton.
Older houses in St Denys, near Church of St Denys or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, often with cement roofs. Near open spaces such as Netley Common, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once. The New Forest National Park is within about 8 miles, and garages on rural plots there often have neighbouring outbuildings roofed the same way. The sea is within about 2 miles, and on exposed sites wind decides when roof sheets can be taken down safely.

Which option is right?
Removal first, then the new roof, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
