Asbestos cement roof projects handled with planning, care and realistic options

Older commercial and industrial buildings often still have asbestos cement roofs in place. Those roofs may be leaking, weathered, difficult to maintain or no longer right for the way the building is being used.

Avalon Construction supports refurbishment-led asbestos roofing enquiries where the goal is to improve performance, reduce future issues and move the building forward with a practical plan. Depending on the project, that can involve upgrades, overcladding and linked envelope works.
