Rural garages near Stelling Minnis are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

Stelling Minnis: your questions answered
How far is Stelling Minnis from London?
Stelling Minnis is about 55 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Stelling Minnis have asbestos?
Any home in Stelling Minnis built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How can I get a price?
Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
Can you remove the whole garage?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
Can the roof be overclad?
It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

- Parking and access charges

Sending photos
What to photograph:
- A clear close-up
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Where we could park
- How we’d reach it
