Asbestos garage roof removal near Thames Ditton
Asbestos garage roof removal near Thames Ditton
Removal leaves the garage open to the weather, so plan the new roof before the removal date. Mention your plans when you get in touch. Whether it’s garages before a new roof or conversion and garages in a row or block, we deal with bargeboards, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets and more.
In areas like Thames Ditton, many garages are detached and reached by a drive, so access is usually simple to plan. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

After we have finished:
- Let neighbours know beforehand

What’s in and what’s out:
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Bargeboards

Thames Ditton: your questions answered
Could my house in Thames Ditton contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Thames Ditton from London?
Thames Ditton is about 13 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
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. Photos help us check.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
