Asbestos Over Cladding in Dearham and the surrounding area
Over-cladding only works on a roof that can carry it, which is why the sheets and the frame are assessed first. Stable asbestos cement on a sound frame takes a new insulated roof over the top: the old sheeting is encapsulated, the leaks stop, and licensed removal is avoided. Where the roof cannot take one, we tell you straight and arrange licensed removal through a specialist.
Buildings in Dearham and the area around it, Ellenborough, Crosscanonby, Lillyhall, Redmain and Thackthwaite included, are within reach for over-cladding, as is the wider Cumbria. Tell us the postcode and we will come and look at the condition.
