Asbestos removing is a crucial process in UK buildings. For development reasons asbestos was once very well liked in the Uk mostly because of its insulation attributes. However with connected health risks the Government imposed a ban on its use in 2006.
In spite of this there are still thousands of properties with asbestos use in the ceilings and walls. And the consequences of lengthy exposure can be quite damaging to your health, with two forms of lung cancer associated with asbestos.
If you would like have asbestos removed from your property, a Health and Safety Executive will conduct an evaluation to determine if it's present. If this is the situation it has to be a high priority to have removed, because if you become clinically determined to have an asbestos connected condition it will often be too far gone.

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.
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.
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.
Many examples of asbestos will not need removing, for example if it is present in artex that is in good condition. However, if you are carrying out building work on or near the asbestos it should be carefully removed before the building work starts to make sure it is not accidentally disturbed.
