Our Domestic Asbestos Expertise
Asbestos Garage Roof Removal
Your corrugated garage or shed roof is the most common place to find asbestos in a domestic setting. If the roof is damaged, leaking, or you plan to demolish the structure, safe removal is essential.- Our Solution: We specialize in the complete, safe removal of asbestos cement garage roofs, including the careful dismantling of the sheets and all associated flashings.
- Compliance & Disposal: All removed materials are double-wrapped, sealed, and transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility. We provide you with the legal Consignment Notes as proof of compliant disposal, fulfilling your legal obligation as the property owner.
- Replacement Options: We also offer full replacement options, installing modern, durable, non-asbestos roofing materials to ensure your garage or outbuilding remains watertight and functional.
Additional Domestic Asbestos Services
Asbestos Downpipes and Soffits Removal
Asbestos was often used for external rainwater goods and fascias due to its durability. If these items are damaged or need replacement for aesthetic reasons, disturbing them can release harmful fibres.- Solution: We carefully strip and dispose of asbestos cement downpipes, flues, and soffit boards before replacement with modern, safe or fibre cement equivalents.
General Outbuilding and Shed Removal
This covers smaller structures or isolated areas on your property, such as small sheds, kennels, or boundary walls constructed from asbestos cement.- Solution: We provide a targeted removal service for any quantity of non-licensed asbestos cement sheeting, ensuring the area is completely cleared and certified clean.

Domestic Asbestos Removal Services FAQ's
Asbestos is only dangerous when the material is disturbed or damaged, releasing fibres into the air. If the material (like a garage roof sheet) is intact, it poses a low risk, but **removal is recommended** if it's damaged or you plan renovations.
The most common locations are in **garage and shed corrugated roofs**, soffit boards, downpipes, older boiler flues, and sometimes in textured coatings (like Artex).
For small, obvious items like garage roofs, a full formal survey is often not required. We perform a **visual and material risk assessment** on site to confirm the material's nature and condition before beginning work.
The waste is carefully **double-wrapped and sealed** on site, then transported by our licensed team to an approved, **certified hazardous waste landfill facility**. You receive the legal paperwork (Consignment Notes) to prove proper disposal.
Minor leaks can be temporarily repaired, but if the roof is old, badly cracked, or if you plan to use the garage more frequently, **full removal is the safest, permanent solution**.
Most standard single-bay asbestos garage roof removals are completed within a **single day**, minimizing disruption to your home life. Replacement work may require additional time.
No. We follow strict **HSE-compliant procedures**, including controlled wetting of materials, careful dismantling, and sealing. We ensure the work area is thoroughly cleaned with specialist HEPA vacuums before leaving.
Yes. We offer complete **replacement solutions** for your garage roof, typically using high-quality, non-asbestos fibre cement sheets or modern lightweight roofing materials to keep your structure watertight.
Working with asbestos requires specific training, personal protective equipment, and a **Waste Carrier's License** for legal disposal. Using an unqualified person puts your health and your legal compliance at risk.
You can call us directly or fill out the contact form on our website. We usually require a few basic details and often a **photograph of the material** (e.g., your garage roof) to provide an accurate, no-obligation estimate.
