Asbestos Over Cladding in Wetheral and the surrounding area
Nothing about an over-clad disturbs the existing sheets. The new insulated roof is fixed over the top, the old asbestos cement is encapsulated, and the leaks stop, which on older farm and industrial buildings with stable sheets and a sound frame avoids both licensed removal and downtime. Where a roof will not take one, we say so and arrange licensed removal through a specialist.
Over-cladding work covers Wetheral and the area round about, Cumwhinton, Cotehill, How, Faugh, Hethersgill and Knarsdale among them, and reaches into the wider Cumbria. Tell us the postcode and the building, and we will come and assess it.
