At ONPOINT Construction, we believe that asbestos encapsulation is a superior alternative to asbestos replacement. Replacing asbestos roofing sheets comes with a substantial capital cost, as well as regulatory compliance expenses for safe removal and disposal.
Through our asbestos encapsulation process, we restore the integrity of the roofing by applying a bonding layer that seals the loose asbestos fibers and stabilizes the degraded surface layers. This significantly extends the lifespan of the asbestos roof, eliminating the need for costly replacement. Encapsulation offers a more cost-effective solution overall.
Our system involves a primer that penetrates the lichen and degraded asbestos, binding the unstable elements to the sound base material. A durable and decorative Super Acrylic Topcoat is then applied, offering resistance against moss and lichen growth. This proven system has been extensively used in various sectors, including government, local councils, commercial industry, schools, and private dwellings throughout South Africa for over 20 years.
For homeowners looking to sell a house with an asbestos roof, encapsulation provides a safer and more economical option. It binds unstable asbestos fibers, prevents the spread of airborne asbestos, and does not require any downtime or expensive shutdowns. Additionally, high-pressure cleaning is not needed.
Choose ONPOINT Construction for reliable and effective asbestos encapsulation, ensuring the safety and longevity of your roof with minimal disruption or expense.
