Asbestos garage roof removal in Bladon
Questions from Bladon
Do you work near Hanborough station?
Yes, we cover Bladon and the area towards Hanborough station, about 1 mile west.
Are garage roofs in Bladon typically asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is typically quick once we’re set up.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

- Access: height, lofts, steps and space

When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
Photos that help
The most useful photos are:
- Damaged areas
- An idea of size
- An overall view
- Labels, if any
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
What happens next
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
Once we are done:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- File the waste paperwork
- Let neighbours know beforehand
Avoid these
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Bladon
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Garages due for demolition
- Double garages
- Garages in a row or block
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
Older houses in Bladon, near St Martin's Church or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs.

Can I do it myself?
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Which option is right?
Removing the roof sheets or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
