How asbestos garage roof removal works in Wallend
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical materials include bargeboards, ridge pieces and downpipes, and people typically contact us about pieces of broken roof and double garages.
Garages around Wallend may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Afterwards
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
To avoid problems in future:
- Give us a rough size
- Keep pets and children inside
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
What to avoid
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
For businesses and landlords in Wallend
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
The process
Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and keep the area clear of everyone else. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. In December, it’s dark in Wallend by about 3:50pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

FAQs for Wallend
My garage in Wallend has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you cover Wallend from London?
We cover Wallend, about 34 miles from central London.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Materials we deal with
Gutters and downpipes
We take them down in whole lengths.
