Asbestos garage roof removal in Butler's Cross
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Butler's Cross. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. Common materials are cement gutters, bargeboards and cement wall panels, and typical jobs are pieces of broken roof and brittle, leaking roofs.
Rural garages near Butler's Cross are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
The process
After removal, we clean up and check for debris, then take the waste away. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Butler's Cross is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- We check the roof material first
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
Before we arrive
- Find any old asbestos reports
- Move things out of the way carefully
- Mention any damage before we arrive

Looking after things afterwards
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Let us know where we can park
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Never cut or break the sheets.
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
What you get
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond

Your questions about garage roof removal in Butler's Cross
Do you cover Butler's Cross and the area around Little Kimble station?
Yes, we cover Butler's Cross and the area towards Little Kimble station, about 1.2 miles west.
My garage in Butler's Cross has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Do you cover Butler's Cross?
Yes. We cover Butler's Cross and the surrounding area as part of Buckinghamshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Normally, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
