Redevelopment works on site in Doncaster - Asbestos Removal

Last month we updated you with a current project we are working on (read the post here…).

We have now completed many more aspects of this project and we are making great progress on one of the largest areas, which is now on it’s second enclosure within the room. This room was split down the middle and half done first.

The live enclosure has Asbestos Insulation Board (AIB) ceiling tiles, and these need to be removed in controlled conditions with full face masks, correct RPE and PPE for asbestos operatives. (read about requirements of RPE, PPE here…) The AIB needs to be wetted down with surfactant before removal in order to reduce the risk of fibre release.

Frequently Asked Questions

Some of the most common questions we get asked are answered below for you! For further information give us a...

Q: How many types of asbestos are there?

Asbestos has two sub-categories; Serpentine and Amphibole, defined by their difference in fibre qualities. In the Serpentine category is Chrysotile (also known as White asbestos) with S-shaped fibres. In the Amphibole category is; Crocidolite (Blue asbestos), Amosite (Brown asbestos) and also lesser-known Anthophyllite, Tremolite and Actinolite, all with straight fibres. To learn more about the history of asbestos, read our blog

Q: Why is asbestos hazardous to my health?

The fibres of the asbestos materials are long, thin strands that are very small. When inhaled, these fibres latch on to your lungs and organs and when built up over time can cause Asbestosis or Mesothelioma, both fatal and incurable diseases. For further information on why asbestos can be dangerous, read our blog.

Q: What should I do if I find asbestos?

Before removals can take place, the type of asbestos needs to be identified with an independent surveyor to determine the exact properties. Never attempt to remove it yourself, and call a professional such as ourselves. If it is in bad condition it may be treated as an urgent matter.
