Our asbestos garage roof removal in DA3
Many garages built before 2000, in DA3 and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. Typical jobs include garages being knocked down and prefab garages with cement walls, including bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces.
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole.
- Send photos of the garage and the roof
- We check it’s asbestos cement
- We quote for the removal and disposal
- On the day we wet, unfix and lower the sheets whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken away, and you get the consignment note

The scope of garage roof removal
What’s in and what’s out:
- Different materials need a different approach
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is usually a separate job
Should you do it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
What we deal with in DA3
Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Garages due for demolition
- Garages in a row or block
For landlords, agents and businesses
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in DA3, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Questions from DA3
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
