About asbestos garage roof removal in CT2
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. Typical materials include bargeboards, downpipes and cement gutters, and typical jobs are garages due a new roof and concrete-panel garages.
Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and nobody else comes near.
- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
- You get a written quote
- The sheets are wetted, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note

FAQs for CT2
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it still needs controls, training and legal disposal.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is typically a short job, though access and condition affect it.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
