Asbestos Roofing Solutions

Excellence in Asbestos Roofing Solutions

End user clients have 3 main options when considering whether to refurbish their existing asbestos roofs as follows:-

  • Over-Roof or over sheet the existing roof system.
  • Strip off the existing roof system and re-sheet.
  • Coat the Asbestos Roof Sheeting with a Liquid Applied Waterproofing System.

Each of the above solutions is offered by MRC Group with the option of the ‘Guardian’ System Warranty

Option – Over-Roofing Asbestos Roof Refurbishment.

Stripping off asbestos sheets is expensive and also renders the building non-operational in the areas which are being removed.

The existing asbestos roofing / cladding system remains in-situ and an innovative steel support system is installed to support the new roofing / cladding system. This system creates a minimum void of 60mm where insulation can be installed to upgrade the efficiency of the roofing & cladding system. (if required)

Please note the innovative steel support system is fixed back to the structure NOT the roof sheet. Over-roofing systems over asbestos roof sheeting has been installed for many decades.

Key Benefits of MRC’s Over Roofing Asbestos Roofs:-

  • No requirement to strip off the existing roof.
  • No costly transportation or disposal costs of existing roof.
  • Continue to use the building WHILE the over-roofing system is installed.
  • Convert the roof to an energy efficient roof system by adding mineral fibre insulation REDUCING your operational costs and decreasing associated carbon emissions.
  • Upgrades and improves the aesthetics of the existing building.
