How We Work in Budleigh Salterton
Although Budleigh Salterton sits only a few miles across the water from our yard in Devon, driving our commercial vehicles round the estuary via Exeter and down the B3178 is part of our regular weekly run. Because we are in East Devon so often, we can easily pop out to inspect your garage or outbuilding, measure up, and give you a straightforward, fixed-price quote with no obligation.
A large share of our work in Budleigh Salterton involves detached sectional concrete garages, older brick outbuildings, and garden sheds built between the 1950s and 1980s. Down near the coast, decades of salt air, winter gales, and heavy moss growth take their toll on corrugated asbestos cement roofs. The sheets become brittle and porous, fixings rust through, and water starts dripping onto whatever you have stored inside.
Access, Parking & Site Setup
Whether your property is tucked along the steeper, narrower lanes near the town centre or sits on a wider residential drive further up towards Knowle, we plan access carefully before turning up on the day:
- Tight driveways and rear gardens: We do not need huge articulated lorries. Our enclosed waste vans can park on a standard drive or at the kerbside while we carry sheets out carefully by hand along protected pathways.
- Neighbouring boundaries: Many garages in town sit right on the boundary line or in shared blocks. We work neatly from mobile access towers and roof ladders so we do not disturb next door's flowerbeds or conservatory.
- Fibre suppression: We never smash, saw, or power-wash asbestos cement. We dampen the roof down, unbolt or crop the old hook bolts, lift each sheet whole, and seal it in heavy-duty polythene straight away.

Jobs We Take On in Budleigh Salterton
Whether you need a complete new roof on a leaking double garage or just have a few stacked sheets behind the greenhouse that the local council tip will not accept, you can read more about our core services below:
Garage Roof Removal & Replacement
Full strip-out of old corrugated asbestos cement roofs on domestic garages, sheds, and extensions, replaced the very same day with durable, weather-resistant modern profile sheeting.
Asbestos Collection & Disposal
Already dismantled a shed or found old sheets buried at the bottom of the garden? We wrap, load, and transport loose asbestos materials with full hazardous waste documentation.

Safe dismantling of heavy, cracked asbestos cement rainwater goods, soffit strips, and downpipes, along with clearing hazardous moss and debris from gutters.

General Garage & Rubbish Clearance
Need the inside of the garage emptied before we tackle the roof? Through our sister waste team, we clear out old timber, broken tools, and household clutter in one go.
Proper Protection, Zero Fuss
Homeowners often worry that having asbestos removed means weeks of scaffolding, plastic tents, and huge bills. For non-licensed asbestos cement garage roofs and outbuildings, that is simply not the case. Because the fibres are bound tightly in cement, the material is safe to remove swiftly in the open air as long as proper wet-strip methods and handling procedures are followed.
Most single and double garage roof replacements in Budleigh Salterton are stripped and re-roofed within a single working day. Furthermore, for any job under £5,000, we never ask for an upfront deposit—you only pay once the work is finished, the garden is swept clean, and you are completely happy with your new roof.
