Asbestos garage roof removal near West Stourmouth
An old asbestos cement garage roof in West Stourmouth tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is generally the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s garage blocks and old, cracked sheets, we deal with downpipes, ridge pieces and cement gutters and more.
In a village like West Stourmouth, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
