Asbestos Over Cladding in Cleator Moor and the surrounding area
We would rather over-clad than strip out, because on most older farm and industrial buildings it is the better answer for the owner. Provided the asbestos cement sheets are stable and the frame is sound, a new insulated roof fixes over the top, encapsulating the old sheeting and stopping the leaks without licensed removal or downtime. Where a roof is genuinely too far gone, we tell you straight and arrange licensed removal through a specialist.
We take on over-cladding in Cleator Moor and the area close by, Moor Row, Cleator, Sellafield, Ponsonby and Gosforth among them, and throughout the wider Cumbria. Tell us where the building is and we will come and look at what is up there.
