Asbestos garage roof removal in Tyburn
Asbestos garage roof removal in Tyburn
Removing cement roof sheets is typically non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. People often contact us about garages due for demolition and garages due a new roof, involving ridge pieces, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets.
In Tyburn, garages are often reached through the garden or along a lane, so getting the sheets out takes planning. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

DIY and asbestos
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
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.
Good to know
Before booking, note that:
- Different materials need a different approach
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we deal with
- Fixings and bolts
- Gutters and downpipes
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Ridge pieces
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
Materials we deal with
Gutters and downpipes
Cement gutters and downpipes are common.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Duty holders and landlords in Tyburn
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Common questions in Tyburn
Is asbestos common in Tyburn homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Tyburn and the area around London Paddington station?
Yes, we cover Tyburn and the area towards London Paddington station, about 0.6 miles north-west.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always.
