Asbestos roof removal is the safe extraction and EPA-certified disposal of asbestos-containing roofing materials by HSA-licensed specialists. There are three types of asbestos found in Dublin roofing: chrysotile (white asbestos), amosite (brown asbestos), and crocidolite (blue asbestos). All three are extremely dangerous to remove without professional training and specialist equipment.
Dublin properties constructed between 1950-2000 commonly contain asbestos roofing materials. Each asbestos type demands different removal protocols:
- 1. Chrysotile (white asbestos) - the most prevalent form found in corrugated roof sheets throughout Dublin properties
- 2. Amosite (brown asbestos) - extremely friable when compromised, rapidly releases hazardous fibres into the air
- 3. Crocidolite (blue asbestos) - the most hazardous classification, infrequently used in roofing but exceptionally toxic
Each asbestos type demands professional extraction with specialised training, protective equipment, and HSA-approved methodologies to prevent dangerous fibre release. Unauthorised asbestos roof removal is illegal in Ireland and creates severe health hazards.
