Asbestos garage roof removal for Walter's Ash properties
If you’re not sure your garage roof in Walter's Ash is asbestos, a sample test will tell you. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you can’t be certain by looking. We often deal with downpipes, cement gutters and bargeboards, and typical jobs are pieces of broken roof and double garages.
Rural garages near Walter's Ash are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

FAQs for Walter's Ash
Do you cover Walter's Ash and the area around Saunderton station?
Yes, we cover Walter's Ash and the area towards Saunderton station, about 1.5 miles west.
My garage in Walter's Ash has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
How long will the job take?
A single garage is generally a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?
Normally not: asbestos cement sheet removal is normally non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Don’t pressure-wash it first.
Can you remove one roof in a block of garages?
Usually, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.

- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Cracks or breaks

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Walter's Ash, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
