[b][PERTH, December 10, 2015][/b] – Bower Roofing, a roofing and re-roofing company based in Perth, offers asbestos removal service for households with older roofs. Their skilled and licensed roofers help ease safety concerns and replace old asbestos roofs with safer and more stylish Colorbond or BHP Zincalume roofs.

[b]The Dangers of Asbestos[/b]

Bower Roofing explains that around 40 or so years ago, asbestos was the staple fireproofing material used for nearly everything from construction products to actual buildings and households. To be more specific, asbestos was used in roofing products in the early 1980s to provide then unmatched fireproofing for homes that were in risky areas where bush fires were common.

Asbestos itself provided superior insulation properties, as it was versatile and extremely resistant to heat transfer.

The Perth roofing company explains, however, that despite asbestos’ reliability as a material, it’s also an extremely harmful substance. The microscopic fibres in Asbestos can freely float throughout the air, and when inhaled, can find its way into the tissue linings of the lungs and abdomen, eventually causing mesothelioma or cancer and other respiratory problems.

Bower Roofing’s team of professional roofers are licensed and well equipped to perform asbestos removal service safely. All their work is undertaken to comply with the strictest work safe standards, and asbestos is handled and disposed of properly.

Bower Roofing explains that advancements in technology have come a long way and currently, there are roofing alternatives that provide better insulation and fire protection. Colorbond and BHP Zincalume roofs stand out as among the best, and their roofing properties exceed asbestos without the safety hazard.

Colorbond, the roofing company explains, is extremely long-lasting, durable, and surprisingly light weight. Unlike other roofing materials, the colour is ‘bonded’ into the metal roof, which means that it doesn’t need that much painting work to maintain its appearance.

BHP Zincalume roofs are equally long lasting, and the way the metal is manufactured means that it has superior corrosion resistance as compared to asbestos roofs and tiled roofs. Bower Roofing adds that just like Colorbond Roofing, BHP Zincalume also lacks the potential health hazards asbestos is known for, making both of them the ideal roofing replacement option for those that require a safer and longer-lasting solution.
