Asbestos Roof Replacement

The first step of replacing an asbestos roof is removing the existing material. Concrete asbestos roofing is safe as long as the concrete remains intact. But, just like any other roofing material, concrete degrades over time, allowing asbestos fibres to escape into the environment.

When it comes to asbestos removal and roof replacement, we don't take any risks. At every stage of the removal and replacement, we follow very strict regulations and high safety standards.

First, we create a Work Method Report, outlining how we will work together to ensure the safety of all people who use the site as well as the general public.

Next, we'll begin putting up signs and barriers warning people of the health dangers of the hazardous materials we're removing.

Then begins the process of removing the asbestos sheeting from your roof. Our operatives treat all asbestos roofing material first with either PVA paint or water to prevent sections from releasing their asbestos load into the atmosphere. Next, we use a combination of cranes and lifting equipment to lower sections down to the ground safely. Once they get there, we wrap them in plastic sheeting, ready for transport to a secure disposal facility.
