I have a garage with a corrugated asbestos roof.

Does this pose any health risk?

If white or light grey, no. If blue or brown, yes, but blue and brown
asbestos roofs are a real rarity. And can easily be made totally safe
anyway.

If so, how to find a suitably qualified
company to safely remove it?

Me! Me! £5000 sir!

Unless youre selling, or want to remove the garage altogether, asbestos
makes a good quality long lived roof, if not the most glamorous.

But if youre selling, you'll probably be selling to a line of clueless
people that will freak out and pay a licensed asbestos conartist
thousands of pounds to take the garage down the tip. If selling its
usually best to get rid first, and let them put up a new wood one
that'll rot away instead.
