UNIQUE BENEFITS FOR ASBESTOS SUBSTRATE ROOFS
Protective Barrier
The unique benefit of applying a coating to an asbestos roof is that it can provide a protective barrier that subsequently helps to prevent the release of asbestos fibres into the air. Asbestos-containing materials can become damaged or deteriorate over time, which can cause the release of asbestos fibres into the air. Applying a coating to the surface of the material, the coating can help to seal and encapsulate the asbestos fibres, reducing the risk of exposure.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Working with, around or on an asbestos roof has many danger and risks. This should only be done by a licensed and trained professional who is qualified to safely work with, handle, and dispose of asbestos. If unsure, get appropriate, professional advice.
Additional Benefits

Sprayable Insulation – If a sprayable insulation foam is applied over a cleaned asbestos surface can provide a layer of thermal insulation that can help to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency. This can help to reduce heating costs and make the building more comfortable for occupants.

Sprayable Insulation – If a sprayable insulation foam is applied, it can also provide additional structural support to the weak and deteriorating asbestos roof. This can help to prevent further damage, increase the lifespan of the roof and add signigcant strength to the roof.

Encapsulated Asbestos – The coating provides a seam-less and joint-less protective barrier that can help to prevent the release of asbestos fibres into the air. This can help to reduce the risk of asbestos exposure and protect the health and safety of occupants and workers.

Asthetic Appearance – The coating can improve the appearance of the roof by providing a uniform and aesthetically pleasing finish finish. This can help to improve the overall look of the building and contribute to the surrounding area.

Application – Joint Only, Full Reinforcement or Over Foam
The three choices depend on the condition of the asbestos roof. A generally sound rood would typically have joint only reinforcement with joints taped, but with deteriorating and leaking roofs, a full reinforcement with chop strand glass fibre matting with our PU liquid coating is required.
Final Word
Improve the waterproofing, integrity, and structure of asbestos roofs with an application of our liquid polyurethane coating. Not only does our coating cover every aspect of your roof, but it also provides a single seamless and jointless finish that eliminates the risk of roof joint failure but also helps prevent the release of asbestos fibres.
Increase insulation, integrity and longevity with an intermediate layer of spray-on insulation foam.
