About our asbestos garage roof removal in Thruxton
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Thruxton tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is generally the start of a new roof or conversion. Whether it’s garage blocks and concrete-panel garages, we deal with cement gutters, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces and more.
In a village like Thruxton, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Questions from Thruxton
Do you cover small places like Thruxton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Is asbestos common in Thruxton homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Thruxton can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is normally quick once we are set up.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Licensed or non-licensed
- How many samples are needed
- Access to the area
- Disposal costs
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
What to photograph
A few photos can save a site visit:
- The parking area
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Cracks or breaks
- The access route
Not sure what you need? Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 and describe the problem, and we’ll advise.
Limits to be aware of
So you know what to expect:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is usually a separate job
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Different materials need a different approach
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, 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.
