As is evidenced by the thousands of mesothelioma compensation claims made in the UK over the past decade, the presence of asbestos is rife, even today. Yes, its use may now be banned, but it is still present in many a home and workplace. With this in mind, the majority of Brits will still at some point have to ask themselves whether asbestos might be present in their home or workplace.
The first thing to remember is that undisturbed asbestos should pose no problems. As such, if you identify some asbestos in your home or workplace it is essential that you don't decide to remove it yourself. Drilling, sanding or sawing can disturb fibres and result in both you and those around you inhaling deadly dust.
Likewise, taking it upon oneself to remove asbestos can, literally, prove fatal, even if the long incubation period of asbestos-related diseases means that it may take two or more decades for the effects to be realised. With this in mind, it is essential to call in a specialist removal contractor.
Many local authorities provide a free-of-charge asbestos removal service; however, for those living in areas without this service it will be necessary to contact the Asbestos Removal Contractors Association.
Although "soft" asbestos, that which has been used for insulation, is the kind most easily absorbed by the lungs, asbestos insulation board is also a cause for concern, as it confusable with other materials and as such is not easily identifiable as hazardous.
There is some debate about the chrysotile or "white" version of the substance. Many experts argue that, because it is solid, it is safe unless drilled; however, others claim that "safe asbestos" is a dangerous and misleading oxymoron.
