Asbestos in Howick
Howick began as a historic village, but most of today’s suburb – along with Pakuranga, Cockle Bay and Mellons Bay – was built from the 1960s onwards. That makes Decramastic tile roofs, asbestos cement soffits and textured ceilings very common in the area.
Decramastic roof replacement
Decramastic tiles are easily dented and lose their stone-chip coating with age, especially near the coast. When repairs no longer keep the water out, we remove the tiles safely, dispose of them at a licensed facility and install a new roof – long-run Colorsteel or modern metal tiles that keep a tiled look.
