Asbestos garage roof removal near Windlesham
Many garages built before 2000, in Windlesham and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. Typical jobs include single garages and cracked, mossy or leaking roofs, involving downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and cement wall panels.
Homes in areas like Windlesham often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Where asbestos turns up
Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
In older properties, we often see:
- Garages being knocked down
- Garage blocks
- Garages before a new roof or conversion
- Prefab garages with cement walls
Across Windlesham, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, often with cement roofs.

For landlords, agents and businesses
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Windlesham, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Good to know
It’s worth knowing what garage roof removal does and does not cover:
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- Different materials need a different approach
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
Common materials
- Cement wall panels
- Gutters and downpipes
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
- Bargeboards
- Ridge pieces
- Fixings and bolts
After we’ve finished in Windlesham
If you are converting the garage, tell your builder the roof has been removed and show them the paperwork.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Plan the new roof before removal
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
Don’ts
Keep weight off the roof.
Keep weight off the roof.
DIY and asbestos
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Options to consider in Windlesham
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts of the structure may need a demolition contractor. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
