Asbestos removing is a vital process in UK structures. For development purposes asbestos was previously very well liked in the Uk mostly for the insulating qualities. However with linked health risks the Government imposed a ban on its use in 2006.

Despite this you will still find a large number of homes with asbestos use within the ceilings and walls. And the results of long term exposure can be extremely harmful to your health, with two kinds of lung cancer associated with asbestos.

If you'd like to get asbestos removed from your house, a Health and Safety Executive will perform an evaluation to find out if it is present. If this is the case it should be essential to have removed, because if you become clinically determined to have an asbestos related condition it can often be too late.

Knottingley

Knottingley is a town within the city district of the City of Wakefield in West Yorkshire. It has a population of 13, 503, increasing to 13,710 for the City of Wakefield ward at the 2011 Census. It was formerly an Anglo-Saxon settlement, though the ancient monument of Ferrybridge Henge reveals it had major native habitation long before then. Knottingley means "the clearing of Cnotta's people", from the English personal name Cnotta meaning "knot", Throughout the three Sieges of Pontefract Castle, Oliver Cromwell took residence in the town of Knottingley, assumed to be in Wildbore House. Knottingley is a town whose history is linked to river travel and industry. It has managed to preserve certain elements of that industrial history as thriving enterprises today, generating jobs for a number of its population of some 17,000. Glass production continues to be very important. The town was one of the few in the United Kingdom to have a functioning coal mine, Kellingley Colliery. The crossing over the Aire at Ferrybridge was of benefit for several centuries. A bridge was built there in 1198, and another to replace it two centuries later. Located on the Great North Road connecting London with York and Edinburgh beyond that, the town became an essential staging area for the coach traffic on that route. Near to Knottingley is the Ferrybridge Power Station, which has the largest cooling towers of their kind in Europe. Three of these towers collapsed in high winds in 1965. These towers can be seen for miles around. One of the earliest purpose-built cinemas in England, situated in Aire Street, has been converted into flats. Knottingley is a central point for horse racing fans, with tracks at Pontefract, York, Wetherby and Doncaster all close by. For all of your home refurbishments, be sure to identify trusted specialists in Knottinhgley to make certain of quality.

    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.

    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.

    Do I need to remove asbestos?

    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.

    what does asbestos cause?

    What Does Asbestos Cause?

    The perfect example of a silent killer is asbestos. Wonder why? From the day of exposure, you might not see any symptoms of the asbestos containing material disease till years later and more often than not, these disease are not treatable. And as dangerous at it is, it’s most likely not something you’d think about on a daily basis unless you’ve been affected by this harmful material or probably someone you know has.

    Found in rocks and soils, asbestos have been an important material for manufacturers across the globe for numerous reasons. Not only are they exceptional insulation materials in both electrical and buildings, but they’re also flexible and resistant to heat, chemicals as well as electricity. And due to this fact, they represent a very common material that’s used in automotive parts, construction materials as well as textiles.

    Asbestos when disturbed and inhaled for a long period of time can significantly increase your risk for diseases such as lung cancer, mesothelioma as well as asbestosis. Smokers are more likely feel a greater impact as cigarette smoke irritates lung passages which makes it a lot more difficult for the lungs to remove asbestos fibres.

    Mesothelioma. This is a form of cancer that affects the lining of the lungs as well as the lining surrounding the lower digestive tract. By the time diagnosed, it’s almost always fatal.

    Lung Cancer. This asbestos related lung cancer is almost the same with that caused by smoking and other causes.

    Abestosis. This is a serious scarring condition of the lung which usually occurs after exposure to asbestos after a lengthy period. It can lead to shortness of breath, and in some cases, can be fatal.
