Asbestos garage roof removal in Gerrards Cross
We remove sheets, ridges, fixings and any cement gutters and downpipes, wrapped and labelled ready for disposal. From prefab garages with cement walls and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs, we cover bargeboards, cement wall panels and cement gutters and more.
In a smaller place like Gerrards Cross, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, so access is normally simple to plan. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

FAQs for Gerrards Cross
How far is Gerrards Cross from London?
Gerrards Cross is about 21 miles from central London, well within our area.
My garage in Gerrards Cross has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets. Brick walls and bases need a builder or demolition contractor.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is usually a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Which option is right?
Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you are not planning work, it can stay; cracks, leaks or a conversion normally mean removal. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

After we have finished in Gerrards Cross
Any other asbestos in the garage should be noted, or removed together.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Avoid these
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
Keep weight off the roof.
Should you do it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
