Compare Ottery QuotesRoof Repairs Ottery And Old Cement Sheeting
Grey cement sheeting on anything built before the mid-1990s must be sampled and analysed before it is disturbed. It may contain asbestos. Do not cut, drill, break, sand or pressure-wash it, and do not let a general roofer strip it. Removal requires a contractor registered with the Chief Inspector of the Department of Employment and Labour, with notification and licensed disposal.
Older garages, workshops, carports and light industrial units in this area frequently still carry it. Two practical points: sampling at R1,500 to R4,500 comes before any quote for re-sheeting, since a quote that ignores what is coming off is missing a cost line entirely; and removal at R180 to R420 per square metre should appear as a separate item from the replacement roof, so each can be checked on its own.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does roofing cost in Ottery?
Concrete tile runs R450 to R850 per square metre installed, corrugated sheeting R400 to R780 and IBR R380 to R750 on light industrial units.
My workshop roof is old grey cement, what now?
Have it sampled and analysed at R1,500 to R4,500 before anyone touches it. If it contains asbestos, removal requires a registered contractor with notification and licensed disposal.
What does asbestos removal cost?
R180 to R420 per square metre including licensed disposal, quoted as a separate line from the replacement roof so each can be checked.
My unit leaks in scattered places, why?
Perished fixing washers rather than holes. Area-wide refixing at R120 to R320 per square metre usually resolves it where the sheets are sound.
Can a general roofer strip cement sheeting?
Not if it may contain asbestos. That is regulated work requiring specific registration, notification and disposal documentation.
I have damp in several rooms at home, what is it?
Usually perished underlay rather than one leak. Re-tiling at R520 to R900 per square metre renews the membrane with the tiles reused.
Can my unit keep operating during the work?
Usually. Sheeted roofs are done bay by bay with daily watertightness and debris protection over stock.
