We recently completed a specialist asbestos overclad roofing project in Birmingham for a commercial property on Emily Street.
The job involved safely overcladding the existing asbestos roof structure using high-quality Ash & Lacy roofing materials.
The Project Scope
The existing asbestos roof had reached the end of its serviceable life but was unsuitable for full removal due to the associated risks and costs.
Overcladding provided the ideal solution, delivering a fully refurbished and modernised roof without disturbing the existing asbestos panels.
Our Overcladding Process
- Full roof inspection and risk assessment
- Installation of Ash & Lacy spacer bar system
- New insulation installed to improve thermal efficiency
- High-performance Ash & Lacy profiled steel sheeting fitted
- Careful detailing around pipework, flues, and existing services
- Full weatherproof seal for long-term protection
The Result
The client now benefits from a brand-new, energy-efficient, fully compliant roofing system, with the original asbestos safely encapsulated beneath.
Overcladding projects like this are a cost-effective and safe way to extend the life of older industrial and commercial property roofs while avoiding disruption to the site’s operations.
