Asbestos garage roof removal in Little Marlow
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Little Marlow tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is usually the start of a new roof or conversion. We often deal with cement gutters, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels, and typical jobs are broken sheets after high winds and garage conversions.
Rural garages near Little Marlow are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

How we work
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions. In December, it’s dark in Little Marlow by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
How to prepare
- Clear the way to the work area
- Dig out previous surveys
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Your questions about garage roof removal in Little Marlow
Do you cover small places like Little Marlow?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Little Marlow and the area around Bourne End station?
Yes. Bourne End station is about 1.4 miles east of Little Marlow, and we cover both.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. A sample test will tell you.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
What affects the price in Little Marlow
Every quote reflects:

Photos that help
To help us quote quickly, send:

- The access route
- Labels, if any

Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
