The process
Each sheet is wrapped in heavy polythene or bagged and labelled as it comes down, then loaded for disposal. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. In December, it’s dark in Troy Town by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

FAQs for Troy Town
Do you come out to small villages like Troy Town?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work near Edenbridge station?
Yes, we cover Troy Town and the area towards Edenbridge station, about 0.9 miles south-east.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Usually not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
How we price garage roof removal
We base our quote on:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Waste quantity and disposal
- Material and condition
- The survey scope
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
What to photograph
For a quick quote, include:
- Street parking nearby
- Damaged areas
- A clear close-up
- A wide shot showing where the material is
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Should you do it yourself?
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.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
What happens next
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
Once we are done:
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Let us know where we can park
- File the waste paperwork
Don’ts
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

What else we do in Troy Town
Duty holders and landlords in Troy Town
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Troy Town must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Why people call us in Troy Town
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which need careful clearing.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Garages being knocked down
- Garage conversions
- Double garages
Near open spaces such as Botley Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once.
