About our asbestos garage roof removal in Tiddington
You can’t stand on an asbestos cement roof: they won’t take a person’s weight. We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards as the roof needs. From pieces of broken roof and garages before a new roof or conversion, we deal with ridge pieces, bargeboards and cement gutters and more.
In a village like Tiddington, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Common questions in Tiddington
Do you cover small places like Tiddington?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Are garage roofs in Tiddington typically asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Do you cover Tiddington?
Yes, we do: Tiddington is within the area we cover in Oxfordshire. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
Usually, as long as we can work safely next to the others. Photos help us check.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
For managing agents and freeholders in Tiddington, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Weighing up your options
Be wary of a price that is much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Ask for the waste paperwork. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.

What happens next
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Book your roofer in advance
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
Don’ts
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Good to know
A few things to be aware of:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- Re-roofing is normally separate
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Fixings and bolts
- Gutters and downpipes
- Ridge pieces
- Bargeboards
- Roof felt
- Cement wall panels
- Corrugated cement sheets
What happens
We work from ladders, stepladders, towers or crawling boards, never standing on the sheets themselves, because asbestos cement roofs are fragile. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and use controls to keep dust down. In December, it’s dark in Tiddington 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
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Find any old asbestos reports
