Asbestos Survey in Billericay
The story of asbestos in the UK begins with the introduction of asbestos-containing building products in the early 20th century and continues up to 1999 when the government banned its use. It would be nice to say that was the end of the story, but that's not the case. Why? Because more than 1 million UK homes built during the 20th century still contain asbestos products like insulation. The only way to know if your home does is to call Asbestos Gone and schedule an asbestos survey in Billericay.

What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a naturally-occurring mineral with impressive fireproof characteristics. It has been known to humans for thousands of years. It was not exploited on a large scale, however, until the early 20th century when manufacturers hoping to cash in on its fire-retardant capabilities began producing asbestos-containing building materials. These materials were then installed in homes and businesses across the UK.
The asbestos success story started to come off the rails when stories emerged that asbestos miners were dying in numbers from a variety of respiratory illnesses, including mesothelioma, a type of cancer that attacks the linings of the lungs. Despite the growing amount of evidence pointing to asbestos as the culprit, its use was not banned by the UK government until 1999.

If it Was Banned Then What is the Problem?
The ban on further asbestos use was a necessary step, but it did nothing to remove the asbestos already installed in millions of UK homes. That task would fall to companies like Asbestos Gone. Every member of our team has been rigorously trained in asbestos mitigation best practices and certified by the government. If asbestos is present in your home, they will conduct an asbestos survey to find it, report on its current state and provide a quotation for removal.
