Asbestos has been used in various building materials, such as flooring, insulation, roofing, and fireproofing. When these materials age or are disturbed, they can release microscopic fibers that can be inhaled and lodged in the lungs. Over time, these fibers can cause scarring and inflammation, leading to serious respiratory diseases.

The risk of asbestos exposure is particularly high when the materials are damaged or disturbed during renovations, demolition, or maintenance work. Asbestos fibers are invisible to the naked eye, so it can be difficult to detect their presence. That's why it is important to have a professional asbestos inspection before starting any work on your property.

If your property contains asbestos, it is necessary to have it removed by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor. The improper removal of asbestos can actually increase the risk of exposure and contamination. At Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex, we have the expertise, equipment, and certifications to safely remove asbestos from any type of property.
