Looking after things afterwards
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Keep pets and children inside
- Tell us about parking and access
Things not to do
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Asbestos garage roof removal for St Michaels properties
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. Whether it’s block garages and roofs to clear before demolition, we deal with cement gutters, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes.
In areas like St Michaels, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Materials, one by one
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which is sometimes tested too.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Prices and what affects them
What drives the price:
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- The survey scope
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- What the material is and its state
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.
Sending photos
A few photos can save a site visit:
- The access route
- Approximate dimensions
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
Not sure what you need? Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 and describe the problem, and we’ll recommend the right option.
Choosing the right option
Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Why us?
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
- Clear written quotes
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Identify first, remove only when needed

Questions from St Michaels
Are garage roofs in St Michaels typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Could my house in St Michaels contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you work in St Michaels?
Yes, we do: our area includes St Michaels and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
