Questions from Woolbridge
Are garage roofs in Woolbridge usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
Where do the sheets go?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, and you get the consignment note.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
The scope of garage roof removal
Before you book, note that:
- Different materials need a different approach
- High winds can delay roof work
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

After the job
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Some practical advice:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Things not to do
Keep weight off the roof.
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Seized bolts are dealt with carefully.
Ridge pieces
We take them off with the sheets.
Step by step
Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then take the waste away. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on. In December, it’s dark in Woolbridge by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
How to prepare
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
