Large Area Specialists • Minimal Downtime

Warehouse & Factory Asbestos Removal

Industrial and warehouse properties built between the 1950s and 1990s frequently contain large quantities of asbestos cement roofing, wall cladding, guttering, and floor tiles. We handle large-scale industrial asbestos removal across Surrey and London with rapid turnaround and replacement options.

Industrial Asbestos

Why Warehouses and Factories Need Specialist Removal

Post-war industrial construction relied heavily on asbestos cement for roofing, cladding, and guttering — it was cheap, lightweight, and weather-resistant. Decades of exposure to weather, vibration, and mechanical damage mean many of these sheets are now degraded, cracked, and releasing fibres. As a duty holder, you have a legal obligation to manage this risk. We work efficiently at height with scaffold and MEWP access, removing large quantities of asbestos cement safely and disposing of it at licensed facilities. We can also replace the roof with modern profiled steel sheeting on the same visit, eliminating the need for a second contractor.

  • Asbestos cement roofing, wall cladding, guttering, and downpipes removed safely
  • Specialist working at height — scaffold, MEWP, or cherry picker access
  • Roof replacement with profiled steel sheeting — single contractor, no gap in weather protection
  • Asbestos floor tile and adhesive removal from warehouse and factory floors
  • Full waste documentation and updated asbestos register on project completion

Why Choose Us

Industrial Removal at Scale

Large Area Expertise

We routinely handle industrial removal projects covering thousands of square metres of roofing and cladding, with efficient, rapid programmes that minimise the time your operations are affected.

Cement Specialists

Asbestos cement is our most commonly handled material. Our operatives are experienced in safe wet methods, single-sheet removal technique, and correct double-wrapping for hazardous waste transport.

Roof Replacement

We remove and replace in one programme — new profiled steel roofing and cladding installed immediately after removal, so there is no weather exposure gap between the old roof coming off and the new one going on.

Competitive Pricing

Industrial volumes mean we can provide highly competitive per-square-metre pricing compared to smaller contractors. We also combine removal and replacement into one contract to reduce overall project cost.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you remove asbestos roofing from large warehouses?
Yes — large-scale asbestos cement roof removal is one of our core specialisms. Asbestos cement sheets are classed as non-licensed work under CAR 2012, so there is no mandatory 14-day HSE notification required, and we can typically mobilise within a few days of instruction. We use wet methods to suppress any dust during removal, and all waste is double-wrapped and removed in licenced waste vehicles.
Do we need to vacate the warehouse during removal?
For asbestos cement roof and wall panel removal, the building below is typically cleared of personnel during active removal on any given section, but workers in other sections of the building can usually continue. We brief your site management team on the controlled zones and arrange the programme to minimise disruption to your operations. Where full closure is necessary, we typically complete large-roof projects within a single week.
Do you offer roof replacement after the asbestos removal?
Yes — we offer a full remove-and-replace service with modern profiled steel roofing and cladding. This is often the most cost-effective approach as it eliminates any gap between the old asbestos sheets coming off and a new weatherproof covering going on. It also removes the need to engage and coordinate a separate roofing contractor. Contact us for a combined removal and replacement quotation.
