What To Do If You Suspect Or Find Asbestos In Your Property

If you think you have asbestos, then these are some key things to remember and to do to ensure you remain as safe as possible.

Don’t Panic

Panicking can be the easiest thing to do in a situation like this, but, if you stay calm and follow a safe procedure, you and your property, family and employees will be completely fine.

Stop Any Activity

Whether you are working in a commercial building, or it’s just your family in the house, if you think you have asbestos in your home, stop all and any activity and move everyone out of the house if possible, or to one room away from where you believe the asbestos is.

Call A Professional

Call a professional as soon as possible for an assessment and a removal if necessary. An asbestos contractor or removal company will be able to help you with this and deal with the problem safely. Contacting a team as soon as possible is advised, so they can carry out a risk assessment and get your poetry back to normal.

Things To Note

These are a few important notes to remember when it comes to asbestos removal.

●    Removals could take a couple of days to a couple of months, depending on the severity of the asbestos problem and how long the removal process will be.

●    You will most likely be asked to leave your home while the asbestos is removed, but this also depends on the severity and location of the asbestos. A removal company will be able to advise you on this.

●    You should never attempt to remove asbestos on your own. It is highly recommended that you allow experienced professionals to deal with this issue to minimise your exposure and potential health problems.
