Fritwell questions
Do you come out to small villages like Fritwell?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Are garage roofs in Fritwell typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
Do you cover Fritwell?
Yes, we do: our area includes Fritwell and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Where do the sheets go?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
Can the roof be overclad?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Do not pressure-wash it first.
How asbestos garage roof removal works in Fritwell
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Pre-2000 grey sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. People often contact us about old, cracked sheets and prefab garages with cement walls, including cement gutters, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets.
Garages around Fritwell may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Why people call us in Fritwell
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.
In older properties, we often see:
- Garage conversions
- Garages in a row or block
- Old, cracked sheets
- Pieces of broken roof
If you let a house with a garage near Heyford station, find out whether the roof is asbestos cement before repairs.
What to look for in a quote
- VAT, clearly stated
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
- Waste disposal and the consignment note
Materials, one by one
Wall panels
Some garages have cement wall panels as well.
Ridge pieces
The ridge pieces are often the same material.
What happens next
After removal, the sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the consignment note.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Book your roofer in advance
Avoid these
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
What we do and do not cover
To be clear about the scope:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is typically a separate job
- High winds can delay roof work
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.
Materials in Fritwell
- Ridge pieces
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Fixings and bolts
For landlords, agents and businesses
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
