Whether your commercial, automotive, industrial, retail or warehouse building requires a full exterior refresh or targeted restoration, our advanced coating systems restore faded, weathered, or damaged cladding to a like-new finish—without the cost of replacement.
Corrugated roofing sheets containing Chrysotile (white asbestos) were commonly used in UK construction until they were banned in 1999. These sheets were typically made of concrete reinforced with 10–15% white asbestos fibres.
Although stable when undisturbed, these roofs can become hazardous when they start to degrade or when cleaned improperly. That’s why commercial asbestos roof cleaning should only ever be carried out by experienced professionals using the correct equipment, safety procedures and waste disposal systems.
Improper cleaning, especially using high-pressure washers with open nozzles, can release harmful fibres into the air, damage the roofing sheets, and result in serious health and legal consequences.
We take health and safety extremely seriously. Before any work begins, our in-house Health & Safety Consultant conducts a full site survey and prepares bespoke Risk Assessment and Method Statements (RAMS).
Asbestos cement was widely used for commercial, industrial and agricultural roofing, particularly on older buildings. HSE identifies profiled asbestos cement roofing and asbestos cement panels as common locations where asbestos can be found.
If your commercial roof has become heavily weathered, professional cleaning can help restore its appearance and remove accumulated organic growth.
However, asbestos cement roofing must be treated as fragile. HSE guidance states that asbestos cement roofs cannot bear weight, so cleaning and access arrangements need to be properly planned.
From the initial site assessment through to the completed cladding restoration, our commercial cleaning and coating process is carefully planned to deliver a professional finish while keeping disruption to your business to a minimum.
We inspect the roof, its condition, contamination and access requirements to plan the work safely.
We prepare the working area, access equipment and surrounding areas before cleaning begins.
Suitable methods are used to treat and remove moss, algae, lichen and surface contamination.
We check the completed roof and surrounding area to ensure the agreed cleaning works are finished properly.
