Asbestos garage roof removal near Southcourt
Asbestos garage roof removal near Southcourt
Many garages built before 2000, in Southcourt and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. From garage conversions and brittle, leaking roofs, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and bargeboards.
Homes in places like Southcourt often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs, which can be removed together. We only recommend work that’s needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

For businesses and landlords in Southcourt
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Southcourt
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.

- Single garages
- Brittle, leaking roofs

Southcourt questions
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you cover Southcourt and the area around Aylesbury station?
Yes. Aylesbury station is about 0.7 miles north of Southcourt, and we cover both.
Do you work in Southcourt?
We do: our area includes Southcourt and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can the roof be overclad?
It’s possible on a sound roof, but preparation has its own risks. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
