Asbestos garage roof removal for Streatham Park properties

Many garages built before 2000, in Streatham Park and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, and give you the waste paperwork. Whether it’s garages before a new roof or conversion and pieces of broken roof, we cover downpipes, cement wall panels and ridge pieces.

In Streatham Park, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Should you do it yourself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Afterwards

If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

Keep pets and children inside
Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
Photos of the garage and the way in help
Tell us about parking and access

Don’ts

Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.

Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.

The scope of garage roof removal

So you know what to expect:

If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
Re-roofing is normally separate

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.

Questions from Streatham Park

Do you work near Streatham station?

Yes, we cover Streatham Park and the area towards Streatham station, about 0.5 miles east.

My garage in Streatham Park has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?

Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.

Can you quote from photos?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.

Can you remove the whole garage?

We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

What if my house is newer?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

Does weather affect the work?

That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

Materials, one by one

Wall panels

Some garages have cement wall panels as well.

Gutters and downpipes

Cement gutters and downpipes are common.

Which option is right?

Be wary of a price that is much lower than others: broken sheets, no controls or illegal dumping. Ask for the waste paperwork. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
