About our asbestos garage roof removal in Hawley
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Hawley. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. Whether it’s lean-tos and carports and single and double garage roofs, we cover ridge pieces, corrugated roof sheets and downpipes and more.
Homes in towns and villages like Hawley often have a garage plus sheds or lean-tos with similar roofs. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

DIY and asbestos
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

Converting or rebuilding a garage means removing the roof first.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to garage roof jobs:
- Garages due a new roof
- Prefab garages with cement walls
- Garages being knocked down
- Double garages
If the garage opens onto a main road such as the A30, tell us about parking and access.
Questions to ask before booking

- Suitable insurance for the work
- Whether the job needs notifying
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
For businesses and landlords in Hawley
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
What happens
Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and nobody else comes near. The work area is kept clear while we are working. In December, it’s dark in Hawley by about 3:55pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.
- Tell us roughly how big the garage is and how we’d reach it
- We check the roof material first
- We quote and book a date around your roofer
- The sheets are damped, unfixed and lowered without breaking
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork
Before we arrive
- Clear the way to the work area
- Let us know where we can park

Questions from Hawley
Do you cover Hawley and the area around Blackwater station?
Yes. Blackwater station is close to the centre of Hawley, and we cover the whole area.
My garage in Hawley has a grey corrugated roof. Is it asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. A sample test will tell you.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is typically a short job, but access, size and condition make a difference.
My garage is in a row: can you still do it?
In most cases, if we can work safely alongside the neighbouring garages. Send us some photos.
