How asbestos garage roof removal works in North Newington
Many garages built before 2000, in North Newington and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. Whether it’s garages due a new roof and storm-damaged sheets, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, cement wall panels and ridge pieces.
Garages around North Newington may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

North Newington: your questions answered
Are garage roofs in North Newington usually asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you work near Banbury station?
Yes. Banbury station is about 2.6 miles east of North Newington, and we cover both.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Is my garage roof in North Newington asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
Limits to be aware of
So you know what to expect:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
- Different materials need a different approach
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we see
- Cement wall panels
- Fixings and bolts
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bargeboards
- Roof felt

Duty holders and landlords in North Newington
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Should you do it yourself?
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.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Step by step
Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and nobody else comes near. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. In December, it’s dark in North Newington 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
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- We take the wrapped sheets away and send the consignment note
Before we arrive
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage
- Let us know if something’s broken

Materials we deal with
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. We wet them and lower them whole.
Looking after things afterwards
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Tell us about parking and access
- File the waste paperwork
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
What to avoid
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
Keep weight off the roof.
