Why Do You Need To Remove Asbestos?

- Safeguard your home and tank rainwater from contamination
A popular product used in the building and construction industry in Australia throughout the 1950s and 1960s, asbestos is a brittle material that is less durable than other products such as metal or stone. Cracks can occur easily and often result in mould and potentially severe leaks.
While asbestos provides insulative properties which made it a popular choice of material for roofs, it can be a respiratory hazard and is incredibly toxic. Its fibres have been determined to cause cancer and therefore poses a significant threat to those who live under an asbestos roof.
Exposure to asbestos can cause cancer and other health conditions. The process of removing an asbestos roof requires a high level of skill to ensure everyone’s safety. That’s why it’s important to only trust the experts when it comes to asbestos roof removal, to ensure it is done correctly and safely.
At Port Melbourne Roofing, we specialise in offering a complete asbestos removal service. Our team is fully licensed, insured and accredited, giving you peace of mind that you and your family are in safe hands.
We will first conduct an inspection of your roof for fibro asbestos and then we will remove the toxic material safely and dispose of it appropriately, with minimal disruption posed to you. Removing an asbestos roof and replacing it with an innovative and energy-efficient alternative such as Colorbond will not only improve the appearance of your home but will also increase its value.
Using special protective clothing and methods, we can safely remove your asbestos roof and dispose of it safely, at an approved site. Once the asbestos is removed, the area is vacuumed to ensure no fibres or hazardous materials remain. Our complete asbestos roof replacement service includes:
- Safe removal of asbestos roof with specialised equipment
