Asbestos removing is a crucial process in UK buildings. For building reasons asbestos was once really popular in the United Kingdom largely due to its insulating qualities. But with associated health risks the Government imposed a ban on its use in 2006.

In spite of this you will find a large number of properties with asbestos used in the ceilings and walls. And the outcomes of prolonged exposure can be extremely detrimental to your health, with two kinds of lung cancer connected with asbestos.

If you wish to have asbestos removed from your house, a Health and Safety Executive will conduct an assessment to determine if it is present. If this is the situation it needs to be a top priority to have removed, because if you become clinically determined to have an asbestos related illness it will often be too far gone.

South Queensferry

Queensferry, also called South Queensferry or merely "The Ferry", is a community to the west of Edinburgh, Scotland, commonly an imperial burgh of West Lothian. It exists 10 miles to the north-west of Edinburgh city centre, on the coast of the Firth of Forth between the Forth Bridge, Forth Road Bridge and the Queensferry Crossing. The prefix South serves to distinguish it from North Queensferry, on the opposite shore of the Forth. Both communities obtain their name from the ferry service established by Queen Margaret in the 11th century, which continued to operate at the town till 1964, when the Road Bridge was opened. Its population at the 2011 census was 9,026 based on the 2010 meaning of the locality which along with the burgh includes Dalmeny.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
