How asbestos garage roof removal works in Sunnymeads
Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so have the replacement roof planned first. Tell us your plans when you ask for a quote. Typical materials include ridge pieces, downpipes and cement gutters, and typical jobs are old, cracked sheets and pieces of broken roof.
In a village like Sunnymeads, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Doing it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Looking after things afterwards
File the waste paperwork: it’s useful when you sell.
To avoid problems in future:
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Let us know where we can park
- File the waste paperwork
- Keep pets and children inside
Things not to do
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Never cut or break the sheets.
What’s included, and what is not
The usual limits are:
- High winds can delay roof work
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Ridge pieces
- Bargeboards
- Roof felt
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
- Gutters and downpipes
- Corrugated cement sheets
Common questions in Sunnymeads
How far is Sunnymeads from London?
Sunnymeads is about 20 miles from central London, well within our area.
Are garage roofs in Sunnymeads usually asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Prices and what affects them
The cost depends on:
- What the material is and its state
- Disposal costs
- How easy it is to reach
- Travel and parking
The cost of garage roof removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Helping us quote
The most useful photos are:
- A clear close-up
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Street parking nearby
- Cracks or breaks
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
