Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon

As a homeowner in Devon, it's natural to have concerns about the safety of your property. One of the most significant risks to your health and wellbeing is asbestos, a toxic substance that was commonly used in building materials until the 1990s. If you suspect that your home may contain asbestos, it's essential to take action to identify and remove it. But how do you test for asbestos in your home?

Asbestos is a group of minerals that were widely used in construction materials, including insulation, roofing, and flooring. While it was once thought to be a miracle material due to its fire-resistant properties, we now know that asbestos is a carcinogen that can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. If you disturb asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) during renovation or demolition work, you can release deadly fibres into the air, putting yourself and others at risk.

Identifying asbestos in your home can be challenging, as it's often hidden behind walls, in ceilings, or under flooring. However, there are some common materials that may contain asbestos, including:

• Insulation in lofts, walls, and floors
• Roofing materials, such as corrugated asbestos cement sheets
• Flooring materials, including vinyl tiles and adhesive
• Textured coatings, such as Artex ceilings
  If you suspect that your home contains asbestos, it's crucial to call in the experts. At 1st Choice Asbestos, our team of experienced surveyors can conduct a thorough asbestos survey to identify any ACMs in your property.
