Asbestos Cement Sheet Removal and Re-roofing
If the sheets are in a particularly bad condition whereby the asbestos fibers are exposed then it is likely that the best course of action would be to safely remove and dispose of the existing asbestos cement sheets and replace them with a safe and modern flat roofing solution. There are many aspects that need to be taken into consideration in these circumstances, and we are able to offer complete transparency regarding the process of the works from the beginning, design a program to suit your businesses requirements to ensure minimal disruption, and most importantly, guarantee the health and safety of anyone in the building as our number one priority. We also make sure that all of our workers have undertaken the necessary training; they use the correct equipment and are suitably protected with the right PPE to ensure their own safety.
Over-roofing Solution
In some cases whereby there is no damage to the cement sheets, then a completely acceptable option would be to simply ‘over clad’ the existing roof. With this option, the asbestos cement would be completely contained and therefore would pose no threat to anyone internally and externally as well as offering a much more cost-effective solution. We would be able to perform our own roof survey following the initial professional asbestos survey to determine which option would suit your business not only initially but also as a long-term solution.
