Asbestos garage roof removal for Waldron properties
Removing cement roof sheets is usually non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. Whether it’s old, cracked sheets and garages before a new roof or conversion, we cover bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels.
In a village like Waldron, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Your options compared
Does the roof have to come off? If it’s sound and you are not planning work, it can stay; cracks, leaks or a conversion generally mean removal. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
