As a result of the finding, the use of asbestos in building materials was banned. In Pontefract, an asbestos survey can be conducted to ensure your building is safe for its inhabitants. Asbestos itself is not dangerous. However, it is when it is disturbed that it becomes a problem. When it is disturbed, tiny fibres are released and become airborne. These fibres, smaller than what the naked eye can see, are inhaled and can become lodged in the lining of the lungs, and stomach. This in turn will cause disease such asbestosis, mesothelioma and lung cancer. Ann asbestos survey will determine the amount of asbestos-containing material on your property, the extent of its damage and a plan for managing its presence can be formulated. Our experts have many years of experience and are highly qualified in recognising and dealing with asbestos. An asbestos survey is the first step in ensuring your property is safe for those who live or work within.
