Homeowners Warned to Remain Vigilant to Asbestos Threats

Despite the well known dangers, homeowners should still be aware that asbestos could be located anywhere in the home and attempting to move it is strongly discouraged
 
June 21, 2010 - PRLog -- Exposure to asbestos is now the biggest killer in the British workforce, with 4000 people dying every year: twice as many who are killed on the roads. Homeowners are being warned to remain vigilant and understand that asbestos may still remain in many of Britain’s homes. They are being advised to contact specially trained and qualified asbestos removal companies through websites such as http://www.asbestosquotation.co.uk.

Asbestos is a mineral used in building work that makes certain building materials more rigid and fire resistant, and was used as a building material in Britain from the 1950s through to the 1980s. As a result, many of the homes that were built during this time may still have elements of asbestos in them.

A spokesman for asbestosquotation.co.uk, experts in asbestos removal, have warned of the continuing dangers. “Whilst asbestos is an extremely dangerous mineral, it is vital that people do not go looking for it in their homes. It only becomes dangerous when disturbed. We strongly urge anyone who believes that asbestos is present in their home to contact an asbestos removal company. Untrained members of the public who try to get rid of the asbestos themselves could face serious health consequences in the future.”

Asbestos inhalation in high quantities can cause serious lung diseases such as cancer. The only way to safely remove asbestos is by calling a specialist team of removal experts. Please visit www.asbestosquotation.co.uk to find a team in your area.
