Helpful guides
Materials we deal with
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Roof felt
We will tell you if it needs testing.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
For managing agents and freeholders in Kirtlington, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
What it costs
Quotes vary because of:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- How easy it is to reach
- How much waste there is
- Licensed or non-licensed
Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.
Photos that help
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:
- A clear close-up
- Cracks or breaks
- A picture of the whole area
- The access route
Share the postcode, a short description and photos: call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form, and we will reply with a quote.
What happens next
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
Keeping things safe:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- File the waste paperwork
- Give us a rough size
- Tell us about parking and access
What to avoid
Keep weight off the roof.
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
What we deal with in Kirtlington
Weather slowly breaks down the surface of cement sheets, making them brittle and more likely to crack.

Your questions about garage roof removal in Kirtlington
Do you cover Kirtlington from London?
We cover Kirtlington, about 57 miles from central London.
Are garage roofs in Kirtlington typically asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
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.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Normally not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site, with the consignment note sent to you.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
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.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
