Registered Asbestos Removal Contractor in Cape Town

Indawo Asbestos Removal

Safe. Compliant. Certified.

The removal and handling of asbestos must be approached with the highest levels of care and compliance to ensure the safety of all site personnel and surrounding occupants. Asbestos is classified as hazardous and is strictly regulated under the Occupational Health and Safety Act and relevant Labour Law.

Only Department of Employment and Labour-approved asbestos contractors are legally permitted to manage, remove, and dispose of asbestos-containing materials.
Improper handling poses serious health risks not only to workers, but also to employees, tenants, and the public, including children in schools with older infrastructure containing asbestos roofing or guttering.

Indawo is a registered asbestos contractor with the Department of Employment and Labour and is fully accredited to handle Asbestos Work Types 1, 2 and 3. Our expertise spans across industrial, retail, commercial, and sectional title properties.

Using technologically advanced techniques and systems, we ensure that asbestos is removed safely, effectively, and in full compliance with all legal and environmental standards.

Why Compliance Matters

• Asbestos removal must only be conducted by registered asbestos contractors.

Detailed Breakdown

What the service includes

Asbestos work starts with a clear risk assessment, because the safest project is the one that is planned properly from the beginning. Indawo coordinates the practical side of the job: isolation of the work area, controlled removal, packaging, transport, and disposal through compliant channels. Where required, we also sequence the work so that occupied buildings can continue operating with as little disruption as possible.

The service is designed for older roofs, pipe lagging, sheeting, gutters and other asbestos-containing materials that still appear on many commercial and institutional buildings in Cape Town. We also work on mixed-scope projects where asbestos removal is only one part of a broader refurbishment package.

Who needs it

Property owners, facilities managers, school administrators, body corporates and industrial operators all need asbestos work when material is damaged, weathered, being replaced, or discovered during maintenance. If a building is due for roof replacement, façade remediation, plant-room upgrades or tenant fit-out work, asbestos needs to be checked early so the programme is not delayed later.

Compliance and safety

Asbestos is a regulated hazard, so the project must be run with the correct controls, documentation and disposal route. That means trained crews, suitable containment, proper PPE, and a process that protects the public as well as the people working on site. It also means not cutting corners when the work is located in schools, live offices or shared-access buildings.

Buildings we serve

We regularly support commercial offices, industrial plants, warehouses, shopping centres, educational facilities and heritage properties. Those buildings often have different access constraints and occupancy patterns, so we adapt the method statement and sequencing to suit the site rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all approach.
