Your questions about garage roof removal in Tulse Hill
Do you work in Tulse Hill despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you cover Tulse Hill and the area around Tulse Hill station?
Yes. Tulse Hill station is close to the centre of Tulse Hill, and we cover the whole area.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

How asbestos garage roof removal works in Tulse Hill
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you can’t be certain by looking. From old, cracked sheets and single and double garage roofs, we cover downpipes, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets.
In London neighbourhoods like Tulse Hill, garage blocks are found on estates and behind terraces, which can involve a landlord or several owners. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Responsibilities for owners
If you run a business from older premises in Tulse Hill, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
What we deal with in Tulse Hill
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Single garages
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Lean-to roofs
- Garages due a new roof
Garages on busy roads like the A204 need loading planned in advance.

The process
After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then load the wrapped waste. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start. In December, it’s dark in Tulse Hill by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- We confirm the material, testing if needed
- You get a written quote
- We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about anything that’s already damaged
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

What affects the price in Tulse Hill
The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Waste quantity and disposal
- Access to the area
- How many samples are needed
Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:
- An overall view
- How we’d reach it
- A clear close-up
- Street parking nearby
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
What happens next
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed at the same time if you prefer.
To avoid problems in future:
- File the waste paperwork
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Things not to do
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Choosing the right option
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
What you get
- Written quotes that say what’s included
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
