Roof Removal kent

Asbestos Roof Removal Kent. Any Roof, Any Scale, One Standard.

Roofs Are Where Kent's Asbestos Problem Sits

Asbestos roof removal across Kent covers everything from Victorian lean-tos to industrial spans across the county’s trading estates. Almost every sheet has exceeded its design life and is now brittle, moss-laden and hazardous.

Cement roofs are classed as fragile and must be treated as such

Weathered and cracked sheets release fibres from every damaged edge

Asbestos must be removed before roof replacement can lawfully begin

Removal Designed Around Height and Fragility

Every roof job runs under fragile-roof controls. Edge protection, boards and platforms are matched to the structure, and sheets are always lifted whole and lowered carefully to ground level.

Domestic and industrial roofs, same standard

All roof types handled to one clear standard

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Our roof is asbestos but it is not leaking. Do we have to remove it?

Not automatically. A cement roof that is in sound condition can be managed in place, and coating or over-sheeting are recognised interim options for larger industrial structures. Once sheets are cracking, leaking or a programme depends on the roof coming off, removal becomes the clean and definitive answer. We will give you an honest assessment of every option against your roof’s actual current condition.

Every cement roof should be treated as fragile. They can fail without any warning and falls through them remain one of the most common causes of serious injury in construction. Our teams always work from boards, platforms or edge-protected systems and never directly on the sheet surface.

Yes. Gutter sludge on an asbestos roof is contaminated material and it leaves the site as licensed waste along with everything else. It is included in the fixed price, not charged as an additional item.

Where underfelt or internal linings are contaminated or suspected of containing asbestos, they are sampled, categorised and removed accordingly. Your quotation states precisely what is included so there is no ambiguity at the point of handover.

Most domestic roofs are stripped in a single day. The replacement follows as quickly as your chosen roofer or our Re-Roofs Kent team can be scheduled in. When both are planned together the building is rarely exposed for more than a night, with temporary weathering in place between.

Non-licensed asbestos removal covers most cement sheet roofing. Trained operatives, controlled methods and notification where applicable are all required, but no HSE licence is needed. Where a less common roof material changes the applicable category, this is identified at survey and confirmed before you commit to anything.

Yes. Edge protection, crawl boards, towers or platforms, whichever the roof demands, are specified at the survey stage and built into the fixed quotation. Fragile-roof access is part of the method, not a line item that appears later.

£10m public liability and £10m employer liability on every roof job we carry out, with certificates available before mobilisation. Height work is precisely where that level of cover matters, and where every property owner should ask to see it from any asbestos removal companies they consider.

We carry out asbestos removal across Kent, from lean-tos on residential properties in Maidstone and Canterbury to full industrial spans on trading estates in Dartford and Gravesend, every scale and every district. Send a photo of the roofline with your postcode and we will come back to you the same day.
