How asbestos garage roof removal works in Weavers Down
Removing cement roof sheets is normally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it must be done with wetting, whole-sheet removal, protective equipment and legal disposal. Typical jobs include double garages and garages due for demolition, including downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and bargeboards.
In a village like Weavers Down, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Weavers Down
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Old, cracked sheets
- Garages in a row or block
- Roofs to clear before demolition
Around Deadwater Valley, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores.
What your quote should include
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- The method and controls
Your options compared
Thinking of doing it yourself? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the roof is fragile, so there’s a serious falls risk too. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
Why us?

- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone

Limits to be aware of
Some limits to bear in mind:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is usually a separate job
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Gutters and downpipes
- Ridge pieces
- Fixings and bolts
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
For landlords, agents and businesses
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Common questions in Weavers Down
Do you come out to small villages like Weavers Down?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do older homes in Weavers Down have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Weavers Down may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Where do the sheets go?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, though a single garage is generally quick once we are set up.
Prices and what affects them
What drives the price:
- How many samples are needed
- Parking and access charges
- Licensed or non-licensed
