Asbestos Roof Removal and Replacement
Asbestos, once hailed for its durability and resistance to heat and fire, became a popular choice in roofing materials throughout much of the 20th century. Often mixed into cement sheets, roof tiles, and insulation, asbestos was seen as an ideal solution for making roofs stronger and longer-lasting. However, as its health risks became clear—particularly the danger of airborne fibres leading to serious respiratory diseases—the need to safely manage and remove asbestos-containing roofs became essential.

Safely removing an asbestos roof removal and replacement requires precision, expertise, and a meticulous approach, and that’s exactly what our service delivers.

Recognising asbestos in roofs can be challenging, especially since it is widely used in various roofing materials for its strength and fire-resistant properties. Asbestos is often found in corrugated cement sheets, roof tiles, and insulation boards, with garage roofs, outbuildings, and older commercial properties being particularly at risk. Common signs include textured coatings, grey or white corrugated panels, and bitumen-based roofing felt, all of which may contain different types of asbestos, such as chrysotile (white asbestos) or amosite (brown asbestos).
Identifying asbestos accurately requires a professional survey, as even minor disturbances can release harmful fibres. The benefits of removing asbestos from your roof are significant—it not only eliminates health risks such as asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma but also ensures compliance with UK regulations, improves the safety and value of your property, and allows for modern, safer roofing options. Taking proactive steps to remove asbestos doesn’t just safeguard health—it also provides peace of mind and a safer environment for years to come.

Costs Involved
The cost of asbestos roof removal and replacement removal in the UK can vary significantly, typically ranging between £950 and £3,750, depending on factors such as the size of the roof, accessibility, and the type of asbestos involved.

Before any removal of an asbestos garage roof, an asbestos survey is often essential to identify the presence and condition of asbestos materials accurately. While DIY asbestos test kits are available online, they are not always reliable and can even pose a risk of fibre release if samples are not handled correctly. A professional survey is recommended, especially for older properties, before renovations, or if any damaged materials are suspected.
Remove Effectively
When it comes to asbestos roof removal, attempting to handle it yourself is not just risky—it's also illegal without proper licensing and training. Asbestos fibres, if disturbed, can become airborne and pose serious health risks, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. Leaving an asbestos roof in place for longer than necessary can lead to further deterioration, increasing the risk of fibre release and complicating future removal efforts.
Choosing a reliable asbestos removal company is essential to ensuring the job is done safely and in compliance with UK regulations. Look for companies with accreditations, a proven track record, and transparent pricing to avoid unexpected costs or substandard service. By engaging our experienced and accredited team, you can ensure your asbestos roof is safely removed and disposed of, providing peace of mind and a safer environment for years to come.
