Asbestos garage roof removal in Woolage Green
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Woolage Green
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. People often contact us about lean-tos and carports and double garages, including ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters.
In towns and villages like Woolage Green, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Materials we deal with
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Should you do it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
After we have finished in Woolage Green
Share the paperwork with your builder.
After we’ve finished:
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Let us know where we can park
Things not to do
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it’s fragile and won’t take your weight.
Good to know
To be clear about the scope:
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- High winds can delay roof work
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Prices and what affects them
The price of garage roof removal depends mainly on:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- Travel and parking
- How much waste there is
- The quantity or area
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
What to photograph
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:
- An overall view
- A rough size or measurement
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A clear close-up

Common questions in Woolage Green
Could my house in Woolage Green contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Woolage Green can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Woolage Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work in Woolage Green?
Yes, Woolage Green is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
