Asbestos: What You Need To Know

If you live or work in a building that was constructed before the year 2000, it is essential to understand what asbestos is, the risks it poses, and how to deal with it.

What is Asbestos?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was widely used in building and construction materials until the 1990s. It was prized for its excellent insulation, fire resistance, and durability, making it a popular choice for roofing, flooring, pipes, and other applications.

Risks of Asbestos Exposure

When asbestos-containing materials are damaged or disturbed, they release tiny fibers into the air. If these fibers are inhaled, they can lodge in the lungs and cause serious health problems, including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.

The risk of health problems increases with exposure to asbestos, so it is crucial to identify and remove any ACMs as soon as possible.

How to Deal with Asbestos

If you suspect that your property may contain asbestos, the first step is to have it tested by a professional asbestos testing company like Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex.

If asbestos is identified, you will need to take steps to manage or remove the materials, depending on their condition and location. Our team can provide guidance and support on the best course of action for your property.
