Common reasons for garage roof jobs in West Green
Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, so they become brittle.
These come up again and again:
- Garage conversions
- Pieces of broken roof
- Sheet garages
- Single and double garage roofs
In West Green, many garages and sheds were added decades ago, often with cement roofs.
What your quote should include
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- Where the waste goes, with paperwork
- If the price includes VAT
Choosing the right option
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so the roofer starts on a clear structure. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

FAQs for West Green
Are garage roofs in West Green usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover small places like West Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Do you cover West Green?
Yes, West Green is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
The scope of garage roof removal
The usual limits are:
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- Re-roofing is normally separate
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Ridge pieces
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Fixings and bolts
- Roof felt
Materials, one by one
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
Corrugated sheets
Sheets are wrapped for disposal.
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in West Green, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Looking after things afterwards
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the consignment note.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- File the waste paperwork
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Avoid these
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 will not take your weight.
