Eton Wick: your questions answered
Do you cover Eton Wick and the area around Windsor & Eton Central station?
Yes. Windsor & Eton Central station is about 1.5 miles south-east of Eton Wick, and we cover both.
Are garage roofs in Eton Wick normally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Is my garage roof in Eton Wick asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000 often is asbestos cement. We can sample it safely from the edge.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Can I do it myself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

The scope of garage roof removal
The usual limits are:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Different materials need a different approach
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
Materials in Eton Wick
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
After we’ve finished in Eton Wick
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- File the waste paperwork
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Don’ts
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Keep weight off the roof.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Materials, one by one
