About asbestos garage roof removal in RG45
Once the roof is off, the garage is open, so have the replacement roof planned first. Tell us your plans when you ask for a quote. Typical jobs include carport roofs and block garages, including bargeboards, ridge pieces and corrugated roof sheets.
We tape off the area and wet the sheets first, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole.
- Start with photos of the garage and how we reach it
- We confirm the material, testing if needed
- We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
- We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note

Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
What affects the price in RG45
What changes the cost:
- How many samples are needed
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- The type of material and its condition
- The quantity or area
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
What to photograph
When you send photos, these help most:
- An overall view
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Street parking nearby
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
The scope of garage roof removal
So you know what to expect:
- Brick walls and slabs are a builder’s job
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
Can I do it myself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Options to consider in RG45
Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal.

Your questions about garage roof removal in RG45
Do you work in RG45?
Yes, we do: our area includes RG45 and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is normally quick once we are set up.
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.
