Expert Asbestos Roof Removal in Launceston, Cornwall

Have you noticed your garage roof starting to look a bit brittle or covered in thick moss? In our damp, maritime climate here in Cornwall, those old asbestos cement sheets eventually begin to degrade. When they crack or soften, they can release tiny fibres that you definitely don't want to be breathing in. While undisturbed asbestos is often low risk, the moment you decide to renovate or if the roof suffers storm damage, it becomes a priority. We often speak to homeowners who are worried about the cost and the 'faff' of disposal, but we're here to tell you that it's much simpler when you have the right team. We handle both residential asbestos removal and larger commercial projects across the 25-mile radius of Launceston, ensuring every sheet is handled with the respect it deserves.

How do we actually get the job done safely? It’s all about following the strict Control of Asbestos Regulations to the letter. Our team doesn't take shortcuts. We use a 'wetting down' technique to keep dust to an absolute minimum and wear full PPE and RPE throughout the work. Every single sheet is carefully removed, double-bagged, or wrapped in heavy-duty polythene to ensure no fibres escape during transport. Once we've cleared the site, we don't just dump it at the local tip. We use licensed facilities and provide you with a formal Waste Consignment Note—this is your legal proof that the hazardous material was disposed of responsibly. It’s that extra bit of peace of mind that means you can sleep soundly knowing the job was done properly.

The best part of removing an old asbestos roof is the 'fresh start' it gives your building. Once the hazard is gone, we don't leave your property exposed to the Cornish rain. As expert roofers, we can immediately move into the roof replacement phase. Imagine your old, grey garage transformed with high-quality slate, durable tiles, or a modern GRP fibreglass flat roof. We can even upgrade your insulation at the same time, making that cold workshop a much more comfortable place to spend time. Whether you're in the middle of Pennygillam Industrial Estate or a cottage in the Tamar Valley, we'll help you choose a material that fits your budget and looks fantastic.
