Bath, UK - If you are carrying out a demolition project on a building or structure that was built before the 1990s, you will need to have an asbestos survey and removal arranged to ensure that there is no asbestos present in the building. Unfortunately, asbestos was used as a material for insulation right up until the 1990s and asbestos that was used as insulation in the 1980s was infused in cement (making demolition projects highly dangerous as demolished cement can spread the asbestos into the atmosphere.) Asbestos is now banned as an insulation material and there are stringent laws dictating how asbestos is handled and identified as well as dictating where it can be disposed of safely. RM Penny has offered asbestos removals and surveys in Bath and the surrounding areas for decades and our team of qualified asbestos removal specialists are fully trained to safely survey and remove asbestos from your site. In this article, we will discuss the dangers of asbestos as well as why you need to have an asbestos survey and removal carried out if it’s likely there is asbestos in a building or buildings that you are looking to demolish.

Asbestos needs to be removed from buildings safely with an asbestos survey and removal service because asbestos causes an array of lung cancers and lung diseases. The fibres that are released when a asbestos is dormant in the air (typically from asbestos being broken such as a board being snapped or removed,) can be inhaled which makes fibres stick in the lungs. Over the course of many years, the symptoms of the disease begin to appear and many of these diseases are terminal. This is why it’s highly important to have asbestos surveys and removals carried out on buildings that pre-date the 1990s. This is a requirement for demolition projects as a demolition of a building that did contain asbestos would spread the fibres all over the vicinity. It’s also a risk for workers working within a building, as the fibres could be present within the building and these could also be inhaled. If there are any suspicions about asbestos being present in a building that is set for demolition then an asbestos survey and removal (if asbestos is discovered) must be carried out.
