Asbestos garage roof removal near Willesden
Asbestos garage roof removal in Willesden
Removing cement roof sheets is normally non-licensed work under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls: wetting, removal in whole sheets, protective equipment and proper disposal. People often contact us about garage conversions and single garages, involving bargeboards, cement gutters and ridge pieces.
Garages around Willesden are often at the end of a garden or in a block off a rear lane, so we plan how to carry the sheets out. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
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.
If you manage or own a block in Willesden, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.

Willesden: your questions answered
Do you work in Willesden despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Could my house in Willesden contain asbestos?
Any home in Willesden built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
In most cases, no: HSE treats removing asbestos cement sheets as non-licensed work, though it still needs controls and legal disposal.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
What we deal with in Willesden
Garage conversions, extensions and new roofs mean the old roof has to come off.
In older properties, we often see:
- Block garages
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Concrete-panel garages
- Single garages
Around Westbere Copse, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, which can be dealt with together.
