Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Concrete-panel garages
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Garages being knocked down
- Single garages
For rented homes with garages close to Charing station, check what the roof is made of before arranging repairs.
What your quote should include
- Any exclusions
- VAT, clearly stated
- How fibres will be kept down
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Your questions about garage roof removal in Tutt Hill
Do you work on properties in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
How far is Tutt Hill from London?
We cover Tutt Hill, about 45 miles from central London.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
The scope of garage roof removal
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

Helpful guides
DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
What it might be made of
Ridge pieces
We take them off with the sheets.
Corrugated sheets
The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.
Choosing the right option
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Why choose us
- Identify first, remove only when needed
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Covering London and the South East
- Clear written quotes
See how we price jobs or our cost guide.
Afterwards
We clear up and check for fragments before we leave.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Tell us about parking and access
Don’ts
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and will not take your weight.
Never cut or break the sheets.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
