Asbestos garage roof removal near Stick Hill
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they will not take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Whether it’s brittle, leaking roofs and lean-tos and carports, we cover ridge pieces, bargeboards and downpipes and more.
In towns and villages like Stick Hill, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Let us know where we can park

- Photos of the garage and the way in help

Avoid these
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Never stand on the roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
The process
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and keeps dust to a minimum. Garage roof removal in Stick Hill is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:20pm.

What it might be made of
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Which option is right?
Paint or overclad instead? Sometimes possible on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparation must not disturb the surface. Our guide covers the options. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
Why us?
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Across London and the South East

Could my house in Stick Hill contain asbestos?

How far is Stick Hill from London?

Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
