4. Waste Management

We ensure that all asbestos waste is disposed of legally and responsibly, following all relevant regulations.

Materials That May Contain Asbestos

Asbestos can be found in many materials used in construction over the years. Some common materials that may contain asbestos include:

• Insulation
• Vinyl flooring
• Ceiling tiles
• Roofing materials
• Siding
• Textured paint
• Pipe insulation
• Heat-resistant fabrics

It's important to note that not all materials containing asbestos are dangerous. As long as the material is intact and not disturbed, it does not pose a risk to human health. However, if the material is damaged or disturbed, it can release asbestos fibers into the air, which can be harmful when inhaled.

The Risk of Asbestos Exposure

Exposure to asbestos can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. These health problems can occur even at low levels of exposure, and the symptoms may not appear for years or decades after exposure.

The risk of asbestos exposure can be reduced by removing any asbestos-containing materials from your property. At Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon, we are committed to providing safe and effective asbestos removal solutions to protect you and your loved ones from the risks of asbestos exposure.
