Helpful guides
Asbestos garage roof removal in Warner Estate
Old cement garage roofs crack, grow moss and leak. Taking it off is typically the start of a new roof or conversion. From broken sheets after high winds and garages due a new roof, we deal with bargeboards, cement wall panels and ridge pieces and more.
In parts of London like Warner Estate, garages are often in blocks behind houses or on estates, which can involve a landlord or several owners. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Common questions in Warner Estate
Could my house in Warner Estate contain asbestos?
If your home in Warner Estate was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Walthamstow Central station?
Yes, we cover Warner Estate and the area towards Walthamstow Central station, about 0.8 miles south.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Is garage roof removal licensed work?
Removing asbestos cement sheets is non-licensed work in most cases under HSE guidance, but it must still be done properly.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Duty holders and landlords in Warner Estate
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Prices and what affects them
When we quote, we look at:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The survey scope
- The quantity or area
- What the material is and its state
There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Where asbestos turns up
Moss and lichen grow on old roofs and hold water, but cleaning them off by scrubbing or jet-washing disturbs the surface and releases fibres.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Sheet garages
- Double garages
- Block garages
- Roofs to clear before demolition
In Warner Estate, many garages and sheds were added decades ago.
Before booking anyone
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- How fibres will be kept down
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
