Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that has been widely used in the construction industry for decades. When asbestos fibers are disturbed or damaged, they release microscopic particles that can cause severe health problems when inhaled. These health issues include lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. Therefore, the law mandates that building owners, managers, and contractors are responsible for identifying asbestos-containing materials before any refurbishment or demolition works begin. That's where Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon comes in.
