Asbestos Removal & Roofing

Asbestos Removal and Roofing specializes in the safe and effective removal and disposal of all friable and bonded asbestos from residential and commercial properties in Cape Town, as well as Paarl.

Asbestos exposure can lead to serious diseases that can even threaten your life. Therefore, it is vital that the removal of asbestos takes place as soon as it is detected in a building /home. The removal of asbestos may seem like a very simple task, but if the material is handled improperly it can lead to severe health complications for those who handle the asbestos as well as the environment. Therefore, you need the services of a company that is a registered asbestos removal contractor like Asbestos Removal and Roofing in Cape Town.

The timeframe for the removal of asbestos differs for every property. That is because it depends largely on the amount of asbestos found present and how accessible that specific area is. Therefore, asbestos removal costs largely depend on the size of the job, but we still offer the best prices in Cape Town.
The safety of your family and employers (and ours) are always paramount when removing asbestos and for that reason we make use of special PPE and containment tenting where it is necessary.

The first step in the process is to thoroughly inspect the area of contamination before we decide on an appropriate method of removal. We identify the type of asbestos we are dealing with through sampling and testing in association with the National Institute for Occupational Health. This tells us what type of asbestos we are dealing with.

The handling as well as removal of the asbestos take place in accordance with Occupational Health and Safety Regulations. When the work is complete, the area or structure is thoroughly inspected to make sure that all the asbestos has been removed. Vacuum cleaners with filtration efficiency of 99% for particles of one micrometre in size are used in conjunction with wet mops. 24Hrs are then allowed for dust to settle and wet cleaning is repeated. 48 Hrs after clean-up we take two static air samples and test it to ensure the area is safe, clean and free from asbestos.
The collection, transport and safe disposal of the asbestos are also by contractors who comply with all the necessary regulations.
