Expert Asbestos Removal Service by First Energy

Expert Asbestos Removal Service

Asbestos roofs pose a hidden danger in South Africa. While once popular, asbestos is now a health hazard—and the law agrees. At First Energy, our asbestos removal service ensures your property is safe, compliant, and ready for modern upgrades like solar power. Here’s why we’re your trusted partner.

Why Remove Asbestos?

Asbestos fibres, when disturbed, can harm your lungs. South Africa’s Asbestos Abatement Regulations (2020) aim to eliminate this risk. A key rule? No solar panels on asbestos roofs. The Department of Employment and Labour banned such installations in November 2022, citing health risks from drilling or damaging asbestos sheets. Fibres released during solar setups could linger, endangering workers and residents. Our asbestos removal service solves this—safely.

We don’t just stop at removal. First Energy offers a complete turnkey service:

  • Safe Asbestos Removal: Our certified team follows strict regulations, removing asbestos without releasing harmful fibres.
  • Roof Replacement: We replace your old asbestos with a durable, preferred roofing product—like steel or fibre-cement—built to last.
  • Solar Installation: Once your new roof is ready, we install a top-tier solar system tailored to your energy needs.

This all-in-one approach ensures compliance and a seamless shift to solar power.
