How asbestos garage roof removal works in Temple Park
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Temple Park. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. Common materials are bargeboards, ridge pieces and downpipes, and people usually contact us about prefab garages with cement walls and double garages.
In a smaller place like Temple Park, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, which makes roof removal straightforward to plan. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Afterwards
If the garage has other asbestos, such as cement wall panels or a flue, it should be recorded, or removed together.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Keep the consignment note afterwards
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
Don’ts
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Don’t store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.

Questions from Temple Park
Do you cover Temple Park from London?
Temple Park is about 30 miles from central London, well within our area.
My garage in Temple Park 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.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Do not pressure-wash it first.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Where asbestos turns up
Garage roofs were often made of asbestos cement until 1999, so they’re common across Bracknell Forest.
