How asbestos garage roof removal works in Farnham Royal
Many garages built before 2000, in Farnham Royal and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, and give you the waste paperwork. People often contact us about old, cracked sheets and garages being knocked down, including ridge pieces, cement wall panels and bargeboards.
In a village like Farnham Royal, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Questions from Farnham Royal
Are garage roofs in Farnham Royal normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you come out to small villages like Farnham Royal?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Is my garage roof in Farnham Royal asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you can’t be sure by looking. We can test a sample.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Do you cover Farnham Royal?
We do: Farnham Royal is within the area we cover in Slough. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.

Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
These come up again and again:
- Garages due for demolition
- Garages before a new roof or conversion

Near open spaces such as Burnham Beeches, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.
