01 · Is Your Roof Asbestos?

Does Your Garage
Have an Asbestos Roof?

Asbestos cement was widely used in UK garage roofing right up until 1999, when it was finally banned. Many garages built between the 1960s and late 1990s still have asbestos cement roofing sheets in place today. When the material is in good condition and undisturbed, the immediate risk is lower. But as asbestos cement ages and weathers, it begins to deteriorate, and when it does, microscopic fibres can be released into the air. Breathing these fibres in over time is linked to serious illnesses, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

You don't need to identify the material yourself. Book a free survey and we'll assess it for you.
Here's the good news: When asbestos cement is properly contained and managed by licensed contractors, the removal process is completely safe. Our UKATA-trained team handles this every week, start to finish in a single day.

05 · Common Questions

Frequently Asked
Questions.

How do I know if my garage roof contains asbestos?
The safest way is a professional assessment. Common signs include a building pre-dating 1999, corrugated grey-green roofing sheets, and a chalky or deteriorating surface. Book a free survey and we'll confirm the material and its condition at no cost.
Is asbestos removal dangerous?
Disturbing asbestos without proper training and containment equipment is dangerous. When handled by our UKATA-trained contractors using correct procedures, the process is safe for you, your family, and your neighbours.
What happens to the asbestos waste?
All waste is double-bagged, clearly labelled, and taken to a licensed disposal facility. You receive a waste consignment note, an Environment Agency document confirming the material was disposed of legally and responsibly.
Do I need to be present during the work?
We ask that an adult is available at the start of the job to confirm access. You don't need to remain on-site throughout, but we'll call you once the work is complete and the site is cleared.
How quickly can you book?
We typically offer same-week appointments. Use the form below or call 0800 024 6201 and we'll confirm the first available slot.
Will my new roof be guaranteed?
Yes. The replacement roof installation comes with a full written guarantee covering both materials and workmanship. If anything isn't right after we've finished, we fix it at no charge.
