About our asbestos garage roof removal in Turville Heath
Many garages built before 2000, in Turville Heath 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. We often deal with cement wall panels, ridge pieces and cement gutters, and people generally contact us about garages due for demolition and block garages.
In a village like Turville Heath, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

What happens next
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris.
Once we’re done:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Let us know where we can park
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
Things not to do
Never cut or break the sheets.
Do not drill, cut or break the sheets.
Which option is right?
Remove it or leave it? A sound roof with no work planned can be left and monitored; cracks, leaks or a conversion normally mean removal. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Helpful guides
Doing it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
A closer look at the materials
Gutters and downpipes
We take them down in whole lengths.
Ridge pieces
The ridge pieces are often the same material.
Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Re-roofing is normally separate
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Turville Heath: your questions answered
Do you come out to small villages like Turville Heath?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Are garage roofs in Turville Heath generally asbestos?
Many garages built before 2000 have asbestos cement roofs, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
A test is the only way to be sure, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
