How asbestos garage roof removal works in Wytham
We remove sheets, ridges, fixings and any cement gutters and downpipes, wrapped and labelled ready for disposal. People often contact us about garage conversions and broken sheets after high winds, including corrugated roof sheets, cement gutters and downpipes.
Garages around Wytham may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Garage roofs in Wytham
Wytham is about 4 miles north-west of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Wytham has a mix of older and newer buildings, and anything from before 2000 may contain asbestos. Wytham is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire we cover.
Near open spaces such as Hook Meadow and The Trap Grounds, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, which can be dealt with together. Older houses in Wytham, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, often with cement roofs.

Responsibilities for owners
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Wytham, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
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.
What we do and do not cover
It’s worth knowing what garage roof removal does and doesn’t cover:
- We remove the asbestos roof; the new roof is normally a separate job
- Different materials need a different approach
- Removal in strong wind is postponed for safety
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Ridge pieces
- Fixings and bolts
- Cement wall panels
- Roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bargeboards
- Corrugated cement sheets
After the job
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris before we leave.
A few practical points:
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep pets and children inside
Don’ts
Do not jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Common questions in Wytham
How far is Wytham from London?
We cover Wytham, about 56 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small villages like Wytham?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Is my garage roof in Wytham asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Can you remove the whole garage?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
What it might be made of
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Ridge pieces
We take them off with the sheets.
What affects the price in Wytham
The biggest factors in the price are:
- How many samples are needed
- The quantity or area
- What the material is and its state
- Parking and access charges
Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Sending photos
When you send photos, these help most:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- How we’d reach it
- Damaged areas
- Where we could park

What else we do in Wytham
Which option is right?
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement wall panels can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Why choose us
- Reports and results you can share
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Accredited laboratory results

Step by step
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. At the end, we tell you what was done and what happens next. In December, it’s dark in Wytham by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- We check the roof material first
- 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
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
How to prepare
- Ensure we can get to the area
- Dig out previous surveys
- Don’t disturb the material before we get there
