Avoid these
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.

Asbestos garage roof removal in Littlemore
The sheets are unbolted and lowered, never broken or dropped, because breaking asbestos cement releases fibres. Typical jobs include double garages and garages being knocked down, including corrugated roof sheets, downpipes and cement wall panels.
In Littlemore, a garage may come with sheds or lean-tos roofed the same way. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Littlemore garages: local notes
Littlemore is about 2 miles south of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Littlemore has a mix of older and newer buildings, and anything from before 2000 may contain asbestos. Littlemore is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we work.
If the garage opens onto a main road such as the A4074, tell us about parking and access. Near open spaces such as Headington Hill, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once.
Wherever your property is in OX4 and OX3, garage roof removal is available. Streets in the area include Giles Road, Astrop Lane and Grange Road, and garage roof removal is available on all of them.

What happens
Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. Garage roof removal in Littlemore is planned around daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, in June not until about 9:25pm.

Which option is right?
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.

The scope of garage roof removal
It’s worth knowing what garage roof removal does and doesn’t cover:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Shared garage blocks may need the owners’ agreement
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
Common materials
- Bargeboards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What it might be made of
Roof felt
You may find felt on the roof, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Ridge pieces
They’re removed with the sheets and wrapped together.
Littlemore questions
Are garage roofs in Littlemore normally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Do you cover Littlemore from London?
Littlemore is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is typically needed.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
