A closer look at the materials
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which is sometimes tested too.
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
Asbestos garage roof removal in Woolpack Corner
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Woolpack Corner tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is normally the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s lean-to roofs and concrete-panel garages, we cover cement gutters, ridge pieces and downpipes and more.
Garages around Woolpack Corner may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Looking after things afterwards
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Book your roofer in advance
- Tell us about parking and access
Avoid these
Never cut or break the sheets.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Responsibilities for owners
If you manage or own a block in Woolpack Corner, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
What affects the price in Woolpack Corner
Every quote reflects:
- The type of material and its condition
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Parking and access charges
Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
What to photograph
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- How we’d reach it
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- A clear close-up
- Approximate dimensions
Every job is quoted in writing. Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details.

Weighing up your options
Removing the roof before a new one is fitted keeps the jobs separate, so your roofer works on a structure with the asbestos roof removed. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What you get
- Quotes that spell out the scope
- Domestic and commercial work
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
Read how we quote and our cost guide.
Doing it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
How we work
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. In December, it’s dark in Woolpack Corner by about 3:50pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Send photos of the garage, the roof and the access
- If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
- We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
- We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork
Getting ready
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Tell us about anything that is already damaged
- Keep away from the material in the meantime

How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Do you work in flats?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Where asbestos turns up
Wind can break sheets and scatter pieces, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
