Asbestos garage roof removal near Wycombe Marsh
Asbestos garage roof removal for Wycombe Marsh properties
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. Typical jobs include storm-damaged sheets and single and double garage roofs, including cement wall panels, ridge pieces and cement gutters.
In towns and villages like Wycombe Marsh, garages are often one of several outbuildings with cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

The process
If the weather turns windy or very wet, we may pause or reschedule, because safety comes first. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. In December, it’s dark in Wycombe Marsh by about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We confirm the roof is asbestos cement, testing a sample if needed
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof
- We wet the sheets, undo the fixings and lower each sheet whole

Materials we deal with
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. We wet them and lower them whole.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We release them carefully so the sheets don’t crack.
What we do and don’t cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- If the roof turns out not to be asbestos cement, the method may change
- High winds can delay roof work
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is generally a separate job
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Common materials
- Bargeboards
- Fixings and bolts
- Gutters and downpipes
- Cement wall panels
- Corrugated cement sheets
- Roof felt
- Ridge pieces
Should you do it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
How far is Wycombe Marsh from London?
Wycombe Marsh is about 28 miles from central London, well within our area.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is typically a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
