Asbestos Over Cladding in Distington and the surrounding area
Strip-out or over-clad is the first question, and the sheets and frame answer it. Stable asbestos cement on a sound frame means a new insulated roof over the top, the old sheeting encapsulated and the leaks stopped, without licensed removal or the weeks a building spends out of use. Where a roof is too far gone to over-clad, we tell you straight and arrange licensed removal through a specialist.
We over-clad older roofs across Distington and the surrounding area, including High Harrington, Moresby, Langlands and Tongland, and on through the wider Cumbria. Give us the postcode and we will come and look at the sheeting.

Farmers and rural businesses come back to us
You do not re-roof often, and it is rarely cheap. These are the reasons owners across the country come back to ESW Contractors each time.
Agricultural specialists
Week in, week out we are working on agricultural buildings, so how they are built and how they are used is second nature.
The full job, one contractor
All of it, new roofs, repairs, cladding, gutters, maintenance, comes from one team, so nothing is left between trades.
Minimal disruption
The schedule is built around your operation and the building stays weathertight while we are on it, so work continues.
Straight answers
We are straight about the condition. Repair, over-clad or full replacement, the recommendation follows the roof, not the invoice.
Safe at height
Safe working methods and proper access on every roof, no matter how tricky the building.
Nationwide coverage
One point of contact, working out of Darlington and South Wales, and we will travel for sizeable agricultural and industrial jobs.
