Prefabricated garages may have cement walls.

Asbestos garage roof removal for Worplesdon properties

Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is normally the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s storm-damaged sheets and lean-tos and carports, we deal with bargeboards, cement gutters and downpipes and more.

In a village like Worplesdon, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. We only recommend work that is needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

What’s included, and what is not

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
  • Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
  • Re-roofing is normally separate

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Weighing up your options

Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Ask for the waste paperwork. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Why people choose us

  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Waste paperwork for every removal
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing

See our prices page or our cost guide.

Why people call us in Worplesdon

Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and repairs on old sheets rarely last long.

You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:

  • Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
  • Concrete-panel garages
  • Double garages
  • Garage blocks

Older houses in Worplesdon, near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

Before you book anyone

  • If the price includes VAT
  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Where the waste goes, with paperwork
  • Suitable insurance for the work

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Step by step

We wear disposable coveralls and respirators throughout, and keep the area clear of everyone else. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. Late-December sunset in Worplesdon is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

  1. Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
  2. If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
  3. We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
  4. We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
  5. We take the wrapped sheets away and send the paperwork

How to prepare

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Move things out of the way carefully
  • Let us know if something’s broken

What it costs

Every quote reflects:

  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • How easy it is to reach
  • How much there is
  • The type of material and its condition

A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Photos that help

What to photograph:

  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • The access route
  • The parking area
  • An idea of size

Not sure what you need? Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 and describe the problem, and we will recommend the right option.

Doing it yourself?

With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

FAQs for Worplesdon

Do you cover Worplesdon and the area around Worplesdon station?

Yes. Worplesdon station is about 1.5 miles north-east of Worplesdon, and we cover both.

Do you come out to small villages like Worplesdon?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

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 for landlords and businesses?

Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.

What if my house is newer?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Can you quote from photos?

Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.

How long will the job take?

Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, though access and condition affect it.

Looking after things afterwards

Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Keep the consignment note afterwards
  • Book your roofer in advance
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Keep children and pets indoors during the work

Things not to do

Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
