How asbestos garage roof removal works in Whitemans Green
Corrugated asbestos cement roofs are common on older garages, including around Whitemans Green. We take them off whole, keep them damp, wrap them and take them away, and give you the waste paperwork. We often deal with corrugated roof sheets, ridge pieces and downpipes, and people usually contact us about single garages and carport roofs.
Garages around Whitemans Green may be bigger than in towns, so photos and sizes help us quote. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Options to consider in Whitemans Green
Just the roof, or the whole garage? Cement walls come down the same careful way; other parts may need a builder or demolition contractor. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Why choose us
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Domestic and commercial work
- Reports and results you can share
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it

Common reasons for garage roof jobs in Whitemans Green
Corrugated asbestos cement was widely used for garage roofs until asbestos was banned in 1999, so they’re common across West Sussex.
In older properties, we often see:
- Broken sheets after high winds
- Brittle, leaking roofs
- Double garages
- Sheet garages
Near open spaces such as Blunts Wood and Paiges Meadow, some larger plots have more than one outbuilding, so it can make sense to do them at once.
Questions to ask before you book
- What paperwork you get
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Whether VAT is included
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
Materials we deal with
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Corrugated sheets
Corrugated asbestos cement sheets are the main part of most garage roofs. They’re kept damp and lowered whole.
After the job
The garage is left open to the weather until the new roof goes on, so book the new roof in good time.
A few practical points:
- Photos of the garage and the way in help
- Let neighbours know beforehand
- Empty the garage, but leave the roof alone
- Measure or estimate the size of the roof
Don’ts
Don’t climb onto or walk on an asbestos cement roof: it can break underfoot.
Don’t drill, cut or break the sheets.
What it costs
Prices vary with:
- The type of material and its condition
- The size of the job
- The survey scope
- How easy it is to reach
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
What to photograph
Photos often save us a visit:
- A rough size or measurement
- The parking area
- Labels, if any
- Damaged areas
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page to get started.
Can I do it myself?
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.

Common questions in Whitemans Green
Do you cover Whitemans Green from London?
We cover Whitemans Green, about 34 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Whitemans Green have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Do you take down the walls too?
We can remove cement wall panels as well as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
How do I know if my garage roof is asbestos?
Only a laboratory test can confirm it, though older grey corrugated garage roofs often are. We can sample it safely from the edge.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
