Asbestos garage roof removal in Winslow
Winslow questions
Do older homes in Winslow have asbestos?
Any home in Winslow 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 you cover Winslow from London?
We cover Winslow, about 46 miles from central London.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
How do I know if my garage roof is 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.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
About our asbestos garage roof removal in Winslow
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Winslow. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, with a consignment note for your records. Whether it’s garage blocks and old, cracked sheets, we deal with downpipes, bargeboards and cement wall panels and more.
In a smaller place like Winslow, garages are often detached, with access along a drive, so access is typically simple to plan. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Can I do it myself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Responsibilities for owners
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
If you manage or own a block in Winslow, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.

What’s included, and what isn’t
Some limits to bear in mind:
- High winds can delay roof work
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Bargeboards
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
- Fixings and bolts
- Gutters and downpipes
Looking after things afterwards
Without the roof, the garage is exposed, so book the new roof in good time.
To avoid problems in future:
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Tell us about parking and access
- Book your roofer in advance
Don’ts
Never cut or break the sheets.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces.

- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
