Asbestos Removal in Clacton-on-Sea

Reasonable people might think that because asbestos was banned by the UK government more than a quarter century ago, asbestos concerns would be a thing of the past. Unfortunately, that is not the case. The problem is the ban itself did nothing to remove the asbestos that had already been installed in millions of homes across the UK during the 20th century. That job has fallen to asbestos removal professionals like Asbestos Gone. And while every day more and more homes are being rescued from the scourge of asbestos there are still countless homes out there whose asbestos problem has yet to be addressed. And it must be addressed because the longer you breathe in airborne asbestos fibres, the greater the chance of developing serious respiratory illnesses.

When they were first installed asbestos-containing products (insulation, tiles, drywall etc) posed little to no threat to homeowners. However, as time passed and those products began to lose their integrity and break down they began to release millions of tiny asbestos fibres, and the more they break down the more fibres they release. In other words, asbestos insulation that may have been harmless when first installed in 1965 may pose a grave danger today.
