Asbestos garage roof removal for Surbiton Park properties
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is normally the start of a new roof or conversion. From garage conversions and garages in a row or block, we cover downpipes, cement wall panels and ridge pieces.
In parts of London like Surbiton Park, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, so check who owns the block. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Surbiton Park
Are garage roofs in Surbiton Park normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can you work in Surbiton Park with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
How do I get a quote?
Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Do you work in Surbiton Park?
Yes. We cover Surbiton Park and the surrounding area as part of Greater London. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Duty holders and landlords in Surbiton Park
If your business premises in Surbiton Park were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
For managing agents and freeholders in Surbiton Park, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Should you do it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

Looking after things afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it’s useful when you sell.
To avoid problems in future:
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Let us know where we can park
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
What to avoid
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Why people call us in Surbiton Park
Years of weather wear the surface of the sheets, so they become brittle.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Single garages
- Block garages
- Lean-to roofs
- Brittle, leaking roofs
If you’re a landlord with garages near Surbiton station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether VAT is included
- Which areas and materials are covered
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- What category of work it is
Limits to be aware of
What’s in and what’s out:
- 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
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
