How asbestos garage roof removal works in Warningcamp
Asbestos cement roofs are fragile: they can give way underfoot. We use the right access equipment, not the roof itself. From sheet garages and garage blocks, we cover ridge pieces, downpipes and corrugated roof sheets and more.
In a village like Warningcamp, garages sit alongside barns, stables and outbuildings with similar cement roofs, so it’s worth dealing with them together. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Responsibilities for owners
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
What happens
On the day, we set up barrier tape around the garage and damp down the sheets, then unbolt each sheet and lower it without breaking it. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. In December, it’s dark in Warningcamp by about 4:00pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Give us the size of the garage and the access
- We check the roof material first
- You get a written quote, and we agree a date that suits your new roof

Helpful guides
Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Common questions in Warningcamp
Do older homes in Warningcamp have asbestos?
If your home in Warningcamp was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Warningcamp and the area around Arundel station?
Yes. Arundel station is about 1 mile west of Warningcamp, and we cover both.
How long will the job take?
It depends on the size, access and the condition of the sheets, but most single garages are a short job once set up.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brick walls and the base are a job for a builder or demolition contractor.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Where asbestos turns up
Leaks often come from cracked sheets, and patch repairs on brittle sheets rarely last.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Old, cracked sheets
- Sheet garages
- Double garages
- Pieces of broken roof
For rented homes with garages close to Arundel station, it’s worth knowing what the roof is before anyone works on it.
