Asbestos garage roof removal in Wildridings
Many garages built before 2000, in Wildridings and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. From single and double garage roofs and garages being knocked down, we cover corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and cement wall panels.
Homes in areas like Wildridings often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs, which can be removed together. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

For landlords, agents and businesses
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Wildridings, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
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.

DIY garage roof removal? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the roof is fragile, so there’s a serious falls risk too. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Why us?
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Identify first, remove only when needed
Take a look at our prices page or our cost guide.
Afterwards
We clear up and check for fragments.
After we’ve finished:
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Let us know where we can park
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Plan the new roof before removal
Things not to do
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Materials we deal with
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Corrugated sheets
The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.
FAQs for Wildridings
Is asbestos common in Wildridings homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
My garage in Wildridings has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Is my garage roof in Wildridings asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. A sample test will tell you.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Wildridings
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.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Garages in a row or block
- Garages being knocked down
- Sheet garages
For garages on or near the A3095, let us know where we can load.
