Asbestos removal is an important process in UK houses. For development reasons asbestos once was quite popular in the United Kingdom mostly because of its insulating qualities. However with connected health risks the Government imposed a ban on its use in 2006.

In spite of this you will find a large number of houses with asbestos use within the ceilings and walls. And the results of extented exposure can be very damaging to your health, with two kinds of lung cancer related with asbestos.

If you want to get asbestos removed from your home, a Health and Safety Executive will perform an assessment to determine if it's present. If this is the case it needs to be a priority to have removed, because if you become clinically determined to have an asbestos associated illness it can often be too far gone.

    FAQs

    how much does it cost to remove asbestos?

    If you’re thinking about having your asbestos removed, you have two options - either you take on the project yourself or you call in a reliable professional for help. If you do not have enough time on your plate or perhaps you’re not confident enough to carry out this project on your own, then you’d have to reach out to an expert and of course, it comes with a cost.

    The cost of removing asbestos is, however, not fixed as it depends on many factors. These factors works to decrease or increase the cost of removing asbestos. The factors include the type of asbestos material that needs to be removed, if the material can be encapsulated rather than removed, if the material has been sampled and tested, the location where the works would be carried out, size of the area, the accessibility of the asbestos, if other sites users or neighbours will be affected as well as the type of the building be it residential, commercial, industrial.

    With a plethora of important things to put into consideration, it’s therefore essential to call in a qualified, competent and professional asbestos removal company to provide a reasonable quote for your unique project. Generally, in the UK, you can expect to pay the approximate cost of around £1000 or less for smaller areas. However, for larger areas the cost of removing such an asbestos will cost you considerably more. The cost can be within the range of £2500 and above in the UK.

    These prices may seem high at first but its definitely worth it when you look at it’s possible effect on the health of you and your loved ones.

    What is asbestos?

    Asbestos refers to a group of minerals made up of tiny fibres. If you become exposed to these fibres and breathe them in, you’re at risk of contracting a dangerous lung-related disease.

    Asbestos is strong and a good insulator, which means it was previously used to insulate and reinforce parts of buildings, like ceilings, roofs and guttering. Its use has been banned in the UK since 2000, but it is still present in lots of domestic and commercial buildings today.

     

    Asbestos usually only poses a health risk if the material it’s contained in is damaged and its fibres are released into the air.

    how to remove asbestos?

    How To Remove Asbestos

    Asbestos are naturally occurring fibrous material that used to be incorporated into fabrics or mixed with cement for insulation purposes be it electrical or building. As it’s highly dangerous and life threatening if disturbed, the material has been in the UK since 1999, however there are some exceptions. If you happen to reside in a house that has been in existence prior to 1980, then there is a chance your house contains some asbestos. You may discover it in your home when carrying out some DIY tasks or renovation. And once you do, you should waste no time in having it removed as the longer you’re exposed to it, the more life threatening it becomes.

    Removal of asbestos is a task you should never try to do by yourself as it becomes harmful when disturbed. In an event whereby you suspect something to be asbestos, do not touch but rather have it isolated and call in a specialist for help. So it’s therefore not recommended to attempt asbestos removal as a DIY project unless you’re are experienced in the techniques below:

    ✓ Before you get started, it’s crucial to wear the necessary protective gear. These include wearing a respirator, a disposable coverall, disposable rubber gloves, rubber boots as well as safety eye goggles. And ensure that you remove all protective gear clothing and gear before exiting the containment area.

    ✓ Remove the materials and place in asbestos waste disposal bags

    ✓ Ensure to remove the asbestos without breaking it up.

    ✓ Make use of double bag and seal all debris containing asbestos.

    ✓ Wipe down all surfaces with a damp cloth

    ✓ Fold and roll the polyethylene sheeting on the floor and dispose them same way as the debris - double bag and seal.

    ✓ Clean all tools and equipments used.

    ✓ When done, ensure to wash face, hands and bathe thoroughly.

    Can I remove asbestos from my own house?

    In some situations, it is possible to remove asbestos from your home without holding a licence. However, unless you’ve had training on working with asbestos, it’s not a good idea to do the work yourself. In these cases, you’ll need to make sure you wear complete protective clothing, including a face mask and overalls, and disturb the material as little as possible. You’ll also need to find out the best place to dispose of your asbestos here [https://www.gov.uk/asbestos-in-home], and get rid of your protective clothing in the same place.

    However, in many cases you’ll need a licence to do an asbestos removal job, so will need to call in a professional. This is also almost always the safest way to remove your asbestos too, so is generally the best option to go for.
