How asbestos garage roof removal works in Wexham Street
An old asbestos cement garage roof in Wexham Street tends to become brittle, mossy and leaky. Taking it off is typically the start of a new roof or conversion. Typical materials include bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and cement gutters, and people generally contact us about broken sheets after high winds and garages in a row or block.
Garages around Wexham Street may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

How it works
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start. Late-December sunset in Wexham Street is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

After we’ve finished in Wexham Street
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Give us a rough size
- Let us know where we can park
- Plan the new roof before removal
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash or brush the roof.
Keep children and pets away from broken pieces and ask for advice.
Weighing up your options
Very cheap garage roof quotes can mean shortcuts: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
What you get
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone

Your questions about garage roof removal in Wexham Street
Do you cover small places like Wexham Street?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work near Slough station?
Yes, we cover Wexham Street and the area towards Slough station, about 2.3 miles south.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels too. Brickwork is a builder’s job.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
The scope of garage roof removal
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
