About our asbestos garage roof removal in Darby Green
Each sheet is unfixed and lowered whole, since broken cement releases fibres. People often contact us about brittle, leaking roofs and prefab garages with cement walls, including bargeboards, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes.
Rural garages near Darby Green are often larger, or part of a range of outbuildings, so tell us the size and send photos. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Materials we deal with
Corrugated sheets
Most garage roofs are corrugated cement sheets. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
Roof felt
Some garages have felt under or over the sheets, which can contain asbestos in older products.
Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
These come up again and again:
- Garages due a new roof
- Double garages
- Sheet garages
- Garages being knocked down
For rented homes with garages close to Sandhurst station, check what the roof is made of before arranging repairs.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
If you run a business from older premises in Darby Green, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Can I do it myself?
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.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
