The dangers of asbestos
Asbestos is a dangerous and hazardous material that can cause a number of different respiratory related health issues, such as lung cancer and asbestosis. Not only is the presence of asbestos responsible for life-threatening and sometimes incurable diseases, but it is also extremely fatal. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) confirmed that in 2019, asbestos caused the deaths of over 5,000 people in the UK; among one of the highest asbestos related death rates in the world.
Removal by licensed professionals
Despite the use of asbestos being banned in the UK in 1999, asbestos still causes hundreds of deaths every year, most commonly in the trading industry, where tradespeople have worked with asbestos in the past, and still continue to do so. The risks associated with asbestos are too severe to be ignored. That is where our expertise and experience comes in. Asbestos can only be removed by a licensed professional, carrying the correct equipment and PPE.
