Areas we cover
Our asbestos garage roof removal in SN7
We remove sheets, ridges, fixings and any cement gutters and downpipes, all wrapped for disposal. We often deal with cement gutters, downpipes and ridge pieces, and typical jobs are pieces of broken roof and garages before a new roof or conversion.
Once the sheets are off, we clean the area and check for fragments, then take the waste away.
- Tell us the size of the garage and the access
- We plan the access and the waste
- We agree a date that fits your new roof
- We remove the roof with controls to keep fibres down
- We clean up and send the paperwork
What you will pay
There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Why choose us
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Identify first, remove only when needed

Landmarks near Faringdon
Jobs here are often close to Church of All Saints, Faringdon Infant School and The Swan pub, among other places. A little further out are Faringdon Day Hospital (less than half a mile north) and Faringdon Castle (0.8 miles north-east). Within reach you will find Badbury Hill.
Garage roofs across SN7
Garage roof jobs in SN7 include singles, doubles and blocks, from the towns to the villages.
Faringdon: Older houses in Faringdon, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere, may have garages or outbuildings added before 2000, sometimes with cement sheet roofs. Around Badbury Hill, a garage may share a plot with sheds and stores, so it can make sense to do them at once. In December, it’s dark in Faringdon by about 4:00pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
Choosing the right option
DIY garage roof removal? HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and there is a real risk of falling through the roof.
Questions to ask before you book
- How fibres will be kept down
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- What paperwork you get
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, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
After the job
We clean the area around the garage and check for debris.
- File the waste paperwork
- Let us know where we can park
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Tell neighbours if the garage is next to theirs
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Never cut or break the sheets.
What we do and don’t cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Block garages may involve several owners or a landlord
- Other parts of the garage may need a builder or demolition contractor
- Different materials need a different approach

SN7: your questions answered
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Do you cover SN7?
We do: SN7 is within the area we cover in Oxfordshire. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
