Asbestos garage roof removal in Stony Green
You cannot stand on an asbestos cement roof: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. Whether it’s lean-tos and carports and sheet garages, we deal with bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes.
In a village like Stony Green, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

What else we do in Stony Green
Your questions about garage roof removal in Stony Green
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.
My garage in Stony Green has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Photos help us check.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is generally a short job, though access and condition affect it.
Typical garage roof jobs in Stony Green
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Sheet garages
- Garages due a new roof
- Garages in a row or block
- Single garages
Near open spaces such as Prestwood Local Nature Reserve, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together.
