Asbestos garage roof removal for Windsor properties
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is typically the start of a new roof or conversion. Common materials are cement gutters, ridge pieces and downpipes, and people usually contact us about garages due a new roof and garages being knocked down.
In towns like Windsor, many garages from the post-war decades have cement roofs, and many are now brittle. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

A closer look at the materials
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We release them carefully so the sheets do not crack.
Corrugated sheets
Sheets are wrapped for disposal.
Doing it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
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.
Windsor: your questions answered
Do you cover Windsor and the area around Windsor & Eton Central station?
Yes. Windsor & Eton Central station is about 1 mile north-east of Windsor, and we cover both.
Are garage roofs in Windsor normally asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
Is my garage roof in Windsor asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can take a sample without going on the roof.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Where do the sheets go?
They go to a permitted site, wrapped and labelled, with paperwork for your records.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Looking after things afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it’s useful when you sell.
Once we’re done:
- Let us know where we can park
- Clear the garage before the day, without touching the roof
- Book your roofer in advance
- Keep pets and children inside
Don’ts
Do not store anything on the roof or lean ladders against brittle sheets.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
The scope of garage roof removal
