THE HEALTH DANGERS OF ASBESTOS

Asbestos isn't hazardous when left untouched. Asbestos can release tiny fibres into the surrounding air only when cut, scraped or damaged. When these particles enter the lungs through breathing, they are known to cause a health condition called, asbestosis. These particles are also a contributing factor to the onset of lung cancer and mesothelioma.

There is no known cure for asbestosis and the scarring to the lungs caused by the asbestos fibres cannot be reversed.

Symptoms for asbestosis could include:

  • Extreme Fatigue
  • Persistent Cough
  • Wheezing
  • Pain in the Shoulders or Chest
  • Acute Shortness of Breath

You need to seek medical advice if you think that you have been exposed to asbestos over a period of time and you have developed symptoms from those mentioned above.

CONSIDERATIONS WHEN YOU'RE DEALING WITH ASBESTOS

Buildings and properties that were constructed from 1945 to 1985 are much more likely to have asbestos in their construction than those that were built after this; asbestos was banned for construction purposes in the UK in 1999. If your property or home was built in this time period you should be mindful of the possibility of finding asbestos when doing renovation works. Asbestos may be found in any part of an older structure since it was employed as a fireproofing and insulating material in a wide variety of areas.

If you do find asbestos in your Camborne home, it does not automatically represent an immediate danger or threat. It is only when asbestos materials are damaged or disturbed that they can become dangerous. If it is possible to employ effective management measures to make certain the asbestos is not disturbed in any way, it might be better to leave it in place. If you're at all unsure about the state of the asbestos or its safety, check with a professional asbestos surveyor or removal company in Camborne.

Not all asbestos products are high risk and need certified removal specialists to tackle them. For example, loose fill insulation, asbestos insulation boards and pipe lagging are deemed higher risk than asbestos cement sheets and roofing panels. Irrespective of the threat linked with asbestos, a registered asbestos removal firm in Camborne can safely identify, remove and get rid of any harmful materials that are discovered in your property or home.
