About our asbestos garage roof removal in Warbleton
Many garages built before 2000, in Warbleton and elsewhere, have corrugated asbestos cement roofs. We remove the sheets whole, damp and wrapped, and dispose of them at a permitted site, with a consignment note for your records. From prefab garages with cement walls and single and double garage roofs, we deal with ridge pieces, cement wall panels and corrugated roof sheets.
Garages around Warbleton may be bigger than in towns, so tell us the size and send photos. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Weighing up your options
Remove it or leave it? If it’s sound and you’re not planning work, it can stay; a cracked, leaking roof or a garage conversion means removal. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

FAQs for Warbleton
Do you come out to small villages like Warbleton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Where do the sheets go?
They’re wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if the roof is sound, but preparation must not disturb the surface. Pressure-washing and wire-brushing are out.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, 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.
