How asbestos garage roof removal works in RG24
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Typical jobs include lean-to roofs and garages in a row or block, involving bargeboards, ridge pieces and cement wall panels.
Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then take the waste away.
- Describe the garage
- We work out how to reach the roof safely
- We agree a date that fits your new roof
- We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
- We clean up and send the paperwork
What you’ll pay
A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
Why us?
- No removal until we know what it is
- Work done to the regulations
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Legal disposal, with paperwork

For garages on or near the A30 and A33, let us know where we can load. In December, it’s dark in Basingstoke by about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

Common questions in RG24
Do you cover RG24?
Yes. We cover RG24 and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We will identify it and advise on removal.
