What affects the price in Stockbury
Every quote reflects:
- The size of the job
- What the material is and its state
- How much waste there is
- Parking and access charges
Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.
What to photograph
When you send photos, these help most:
- Where we could park
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Approximate dimensions
- The access route
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.
Looking after things afterwards
File the waste paperwork: buyers’ solicitors may ask about it.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- File the waste paperwork
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Don’ts
Keep weight off the roof.
Never cut or break the sheets.
For landlords, agents and businesses
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Stockbury, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
If you manage or own a block in Stockbury, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
The process
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions. In December, it’s dark in Stockbury by about 3:50pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Get in touch with photos
- We check it’s asbestos cement
- We quote for the removal and disposal
- On the day we wet, unfix and lower the sheets whole
- The waste goes to a permitted site with paperwork
Getting ready
- Find any old asbestos reports
- Tell us about parking and access
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them

Doing it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
What we do and don’t cover
Here’s what garage roof removal covers, and what it does not:
- Different materials need a different approach
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.
What we deal with
- Gutters and downpipes
- Fixings and bolts
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
- Cement wall panels
Why people call us in Stockbury
Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Garage blocks
- Single and double garage roofs
Near open spaces such as Detling Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.
