Asbestos removal is a vital process in UK structures. For development purposes asbestos used to be very popular in the Uk mainly due to its insulation qualities. However with connected health risks the Government imposed a ban on its use in 2006.

Regardless of this you will find a large number of homes with asbestos use within the ceilings and walls. And the consequences of prolonged exposure can be quite harmful to your health, with two kinds of lung cancer associated with asbestos.

If you would like have asbestos removed from your own home, a Health and Safety Executive will carry out an assessment to find out if it's present. If this is the situation it should be a top priority to have removed, because if you become clinically determined to have an asbestos related condition it will often be too late.

For your own personel safety, make sure to use our service to compare and contrast prices from professionals near you. We'll match your requirements with as many as four companies so that you can get a no cost quotation for the work and take the matter from there.

    FAQs

    What should I do if asbestos is found?

    There are all different types of Asbestos. Some kinds of asbestos, if they are in good condition, may be left as they are or covered up. If there is any danger of the asbestos being damaged and particles entering the air, it should be removed. Once a survey has been completed you will be advised on what course of action to take.

    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.

    is asbestos dangerous?

    Is Asbestos Dangerous?

    The short and simple answer to this question is yes, asbestos is absolutely dangerous. Exposure to asbestos fibres and dust can lead to cancer, lung disease and lots more. It’s known to be so dangerous that no level of exposure to asbestos is considered safe. It has been banned in the UK since 1999 but exposure is till rampant due to the exceptions to the ban and there’s a good chance that you’ll find it in several older buildings and homes. And despite the ban in most countries, asbestos related health issues are still on the rise across the globe. People that are mostly exposed to this risk are those who’re exposed on the job as well as those who simply like to take on projects around the house containing asbestos insulation by themselves.

    Furthermore, there’s a need to observe safety precautions when working with asbestos. If not, you’ll be exposing both you and your family to long term health risks. Below are some of the things you need to know about the dangers of asbestos.

    ✓ Exposure to asbestos fibres has no safe level. So it’s best to avoid exposure at all costs.

    ✓ Breathing in asbestos dust can lead to lung cancer, asbestosis and mesothelioma.

    ✓ If disturbed, asbestos can release dangerous particles of dust containing asbestos fibres.

    ✓ Mesothelioma is a type of cancer which mostly affects the lung’s lining. It has no cure.

    ✓ If you smoke, then the risk of inhaling asbestos is greatly increased.

    ✓ The number of fibres inhaled as well as the length of time that you’ve been exposed to it increases the risk of contracting asbestos related diseases.

    ✓ The symptoms of asbestos dust related diseases do not commonly come out until its about 20 to 30 years after the first exposure.

    how to dispose of asbestos?

    How To Dispose Of Asbestos?

    As a homeowner, you certainly wouldn’t like to the word “asbestos” and understandably so. Due to its extremely dangerous fibres, the material was banned in the UK since 1999 and any structure built with it will be heavily fined. However, if you’re presently doing some home improvement project or buying a property that was built before the year 2000, then a chance exists that the property could contain asbestos. So if you’re unlucky to discover asbestos in your property, getting rid of it can be quite simple if you know way around it. In this article, we’ll provide you with some tips on how to dispose of asbestos in your property. Let’s take a closer look!

    ✓ Careful Handling

    If you happen to find asbestos in your property the best thing to do is to call in a reliable specialist who has the proper training and equipment to tackle the project. However, if you decide to handle it yourself, then it’s a must to do this with great care. For instance wearing safety gloves, dust mask, safety goggles and placement of asbestos into plastic bags would be a great idea.

    ✓ Take It To The Tip By Yourself

    To save some money if you have access to a vehicle, then loading the bagged asbestos into your car and driving it to the nearest local tip would be a simple and cost effective alternative. However, you should check with your local authorities before attempting this.

    ✓ Use A Specialist

    Hiring a professional asbestos removal contractor is simply the best way to dispose of asbestos. Their services may be a bit expensive, but they cover up for that in both speed and effectiveness.

    ✓ Use Your Council’s Asbestos Collection Service

    Several councils off this services at a reduced cost. However, they are usually not as quick as a specialist contractor.
