About our asbestos garage roof removal in Dawesgreen
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Dawesgreen. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, and give you the waste paperwork. From cracked, mossy or leaking roofs and lean-to roofs, we deal with corrugated roof sheets, ridge pieces and bargeboards and more.
In a village like Dawesgreen, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

Dawesgreen questions
Do you come out to small villages like Dawesgreen?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Dawesgreen and the area around Betchworth station?
Yes. Betchworth station is about 2.6 miles north of Dawesgreen, and we cover both.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, as long as the work area can be safely separated from the garages next door. Photos help us check.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
Is my garage roof in Dawesgreen asbestos?
If it’s grey corrugated sheeting on a garage built before 2000, it may be, but you can’t be sure by looking. A sample test will tell you.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Why people call us in Dawesgreen
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:
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Lean-to roofs
- Single and double garage roofs
- Garage blocks
Across Dawesgreen, garages and outbuildings may date from before 2000, often with cement roofs.

Helpful guides
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
