Unless handled in the right way, in Birchwood, asbestos removal can seriously endanger the health and well-being of all those involved. Apart from the workers who actually deal with the material, unsafe handling can also endanger the general population. This is because the fine particles of asbestos are thin and light enough to enter the atmosphere. From here, they enter the lungs when we breathe. Continuous or excessive exposure to asbestos or asbestos containing materials results in a range of serious diseases. The fibres become lodged in the lungs or the lining of the abdomen and heart. This causes diseases such as mesothelioma, lung cancer, a variety of respiratory problems and allergies.
While planning asbestos removal in Birchwood, we know how important it is to have a clear and firm plan. The project is planned by our licensed professionals. The entire work-area has to be sealed off. This can be done with strong plastic sheets and negative air pressure, to avoid contamination of surrounding areas. All our workers are trained to use the right equipment and wear safety protection garment. If there are HVAC systems, they must be completely dismantled to avoid spreading the fibres. Finally, we ensure that the waste is safely transported away from the site and disposed of. For professional assistance with asbestos removal, contact Asbestos Associated. We protect you and your loved ones from unnecessary risk.
