Asbestos garage roof removal for Teddington properties
Many garages built before 2000, in Teddington 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. People often contact us about garage conversions and broken sheets after high winds, including corrugated roof sheets, bargeboards and downpipes.
Garages around Teddington are often at the end of a garden or in a block off a rear lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
After we have finished in Teddington
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Book your roofer in advance
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Let us know where we can park
Don’ts
Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
Questions from Teddington
Do you work in Teddington despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Is asbestos common in Teddington homes?
Any home in Teddington built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Often, yes, if the work area can be separated safely from the neighbouring garages. Send photos and we’ll advise.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
For businesses and landlords in Teddington
If your business premises in Teddington were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
