Asbestos garage roof removal near Tadworth
Not sure it’s asbestos? We can test a sample. Grey corrugated sheeting on a pre-2000 garage often is, but you cannot be certain by looking. Common materials are downpipes, corrugated roof sheets and ridge pieces, and typical jobs are old, cracked sheets and garages in a row or block.
In Tadworth, a garage may come with sheds or lean-tos roofed the same way, which can be removed together. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

How it works
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then release the fixings and lower each sheet whole. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions. Late-December sunset in Tadworth is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.

Prices and what affects them

- How many samples are needed
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The category of work
- The size of the job
Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.
Photos that help
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- A rough size or measurement
- Where we could park
For a quote, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
What happens next
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so plan your replacement roof in advance.
Once we’re done:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- File the waste paperwork
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
- Plan the new roof before removal
Don’ts
Keep weight off the roof.
If a sheet breaks in a storm, keep people away from the pieces and ask for advice.
Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
What it might be made of
Gutters and downpipes
Older garages often have cement gutters and downpipes.
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are normally asbestos cement too.
Options to consider in Tadworth
Paint or overclad instead? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. See our guide to repair, paint or replace. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
