Rural garages near Weston are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so photos and sizes help us quote. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Prices and what affects them
The cost depends on:
- The quantity or area
- The survey scope
- Material and condition
- Parking and access charges
Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
Sending photos
Photo tips:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- A picture of the whole area
- An idea of size
- Visible markings
You’ll get a written quote. Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details.
Afterwards
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:
- Keep children and pets indoors during the work
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- File the waste paperwork
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
Things not to do
Never stand on the roof: it can break underfoot.
Do not climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Common questions in Weston
Do you cover Weston from London?
Weston is about 57 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Weston contain asbestos?
Any home in Weston built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.

A closer look at the materials
Fixings
Rusted fixings may need cutting, done without damaging the sheets.
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Weighing up your options
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
In older properties, we often see:
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Cracked, mossy or leaking roofs
- Concrete-panel garages
If you let a house with a garage near Kintbury station, check what the roof is made of before arranging repairs.
Questions to ask before booking
- Suitable insurance for the work
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- The scope of the job, in writing
Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
