About our asbestos garage roof removal in Englefield Green
If you are not sure your garage roof in Englefield Green is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. Typical materials include downpipes, cement gutters and corrugated roof sheets, and people typically contact us about pieces of broken roof and single garages.
In a smaller place like Englefield Green, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Englefield Green questions
My garage in Englefield Green has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work near Egham station?
Yes, we cover Englefield Green and the area towards Egham station, about 1 mile east.
Can the roof be overclad?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Do you cover Englefield Green?
Yes, Englefield Green is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
How long will the job take?
Most single garage roofs are a short job once the area is set up, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.

What it costs
What changes the cost:
- Access to the area
- The type of material and its condition
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- The quantity or area
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
