Limits to be aware of
Here’s what garage roof removal covers, and what it does not:

- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- Different materials need a different approach

Materials in West Drayton
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Bargeboards
- Ridge pieces
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes
Afterwards
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Let us know where we can park
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Book your roofer in advance
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
What to avoid
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.

Questions from West Drayton
Do you cover West Drayton and the area around West Drayton station?
Yes. West Drayton station is about 0.5 miles north-west of West Drayton, and we cover both.
My garage in West Drayton has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Generally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
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 normally quick once we’re set up.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Weighing up your options
Paint or overclad instead? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Our guide covers the options. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.
