Structures we dismantle in St Austell
Garden sheds of every size
From 6x4 tool stores to 20ft workshops, we hand-demolish rather than machine-smash, which keeps noise and damage down on tight St Austell plots.
Garages and outbuildings
Single-skin block, timber-frame and sectional concrete garages are dismantled in sequence, with roof sheeting handled first and safely.
Greenhouses and poly-tunnels
Glazing bars, panes, staging and anchor bolts are removed in full — including the buried frame edges people usually leave behind.
Bases, slabs and footings
Concrete pads, paving and hardcore beneath the structure can be broken out and hauled away in the same St Austell visit.

What affects the price of a St Austell job
We quote every job individually rather than working from a rate card. These are the factors that move the number up or down:
- Size of the shed, garage or greenhouse
- How the structure is fixed down (bolts, footings, poured slab)
- Distance from the structure to where we can legally park
- Glass or fragile panels that need careful bagging
- Extra items — decking, fencing, pergolas removed in the same visit
Where your old shed ends up
We are licensed waste carriers, and every St Austell load is tracked to a permitted transfer station — you can request the paperwork. Timber, steel sheeting, glass and hardcore are separated on site where space allows, which keeps disposal costs down and keeps the majority of your old Cornwall shed out of the ground.
Access and parking in St Austell
Many St Austell gardens back onto lanes or shared access, and some Cornwall properties have steps, slopes or raised patios between the shed and the road. None of that is a problem — it just changes how we crew the job, which is why we ask for photos of the access route as well as the structure.
Getting ready for removal day
- Take out tools, bikes and garden furniture (or ask us to clear them)
- Isolate power at the consumer unit if the shed is wired
- Trim back overhanging branches blocking the route
- Confirm parking — permits, bays or a shared drive
- Keep pets and children indoors while we work
St Austell shed removal — your questions answered
Do I need to be home when you remove the shed in St Austell?
Not always. If we have safe access to the St Austell property and the shed is empty, we're happy to complete the job while you're at work. We'll send photos before and after and take payment once you're satisfied.
Are you insured to work on St Austell properties?
Yes — we carry full public liability insurance, and our crew is trained in safe hand-demolition. Certificates are available on request before any St Austell booking.
Can you remove a shed with asbestos sheeting?
Older St Austell sheds sometimes have asbestos-cement roof or wall panels. We do not break or bag these ourselves — we identify them at quote stage and arrange a licensed specialist to remove and document that portion safely before we complete the rest of the demolition.
Do you take the old shed base and slab away too?
Yes, as an optional extra. Concrete slabs, paving, hardcore and timber bearers can all be broken out and hauled away in the same visit for most St Austell jobs — we'll price it separately so you can decide once you see the quote.
How much does shed removal cost in St Austell?
Every St Austell job is quoted individually because size, materials, access and disposal volume all move the price. As a guide, typical residential jobs in Cornwall start around £200–£450 GBP. Send us photos or dimensions and we'll email a fixed written quote — the price we quote is the price you pay, with disposal, labour and clean-up included.
