Helpful guides
Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
For businesses and landlords in The Warren
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

FAQs for The Warren
How far is The Warren from London?
The Warren is about 28 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work near Martins Heron station?
Yes. Martins Heron station is close to the centre of The Warren, and we cover the whole area.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Typical removal jobs in The Warren
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Bracknell Forest built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
These come up again and again:
- Garage roof sheets
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Loft water tanks
- Finds during refurbishment
For non-domestic buildings like Harmans Water Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

The scope of asbestos removal
Worth knowing before you book:
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
Common materials
- Soffits (cement)
- Bitumen roof felt
- Flue pipes
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Artex and textured coatings
- Panels and boards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Water tanks
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Garage and shed roofs
After the job
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.
After we’ve finished:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Book the replacement before removal
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
What to avoid
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
