Asbestos Removal in Biggin Hill

The threat posed by asbestos is well-known. But what's not so well known is that, in spite of being banned in 1999, there are still countless homes across the UK that contain legacy asbestos-containing products like pipe insulation, ceiling tiles and more.

These products have been in place for decades and are now beginning to break down and release tiny and hazardous asbestos fibres into the air to be breathed in by the unsuspecting. The only way to prevent this latent threat from turning into serious health issues is to have the asbestos professionally removed, and we can do that for you.

All too often UK homeowners become aware of asbestos in their home and, in an effort to save a few quid, they attempt to remove it themselves. This is a huge mistake. Just one error during the process of removal can turn a bad situation into an immediate threat to the health of everyone in the house. It's just not worth it. Always leave asbestos removal to those who have been properly trained and certified.

What are the Health Risks?

The reason asbestos was banned in 1999 was because of overwhelming evidence linking the tiny, barely visible asbestos fibres to a slew of serious respiratory conditions. In addition, there is conclusive evidence that asbestos fibres cause a type of cancer known as mesothelioma which attacks the lining of the lungs. The best way to prevent these health outcomes is to have any asbestos in your home removed as soon as possible.
