Rapid Removal of Asbestos in Tamworth

Asbestos is only generally dangerous when disturbed, so our aim is to remove existing material without damaging or destroying any of it in the process. In order to achieve this, we clear as much of the intact asbestos as possible, only resorting to breaking or cutting away anything remaining if there is no alternative. Where this has to happen, we wear appropriate PPE and use approved extraction methods for removing any asbestos that is still in situ. We then remove it to a secure location before disposing of it at a licensed waste site such as Cannock or Burton-upon-Trent, and you’ll get a guarantee within 14 days of payment that your asbestos has been extracted and safely disposed of.

Our methods are the same regardless of whether we work inside or outside the property. Tamworth properties often require the removal of asbestos-containing gutters, drain pipes and soffits, ceilings or roofs of garages, and sometimes the entire garage structure, as well as floor tiles and older sanitaryware such as toilets and cisterns if required. Our commitments to excellent working practice, as well as the health and safety of our customers and staff, remain our top priority at all times.

Asbestos is a naturally occurring silicate mineral, which first came to prominent use at the end of the 19th century and was a very popular building material from the 1900s through to the 1970s due to its high heat resistance and water-tight properties. However, by the mid-80s the health risks had become widely known and well-documented, with blue and brown asbestos being banned in the UK in 1985 while white asbestos followed suit in 1999.

Asbestos forms small fibre-like crystals when it is disturbed, and these are then inhaled; over years or decades they cause damage to the lining of the lungs, leading to long-term health effects and potential death.

Any asbestos in your property which is at risk of being disturbed through everyday use or access to other parts of the building, or is already partially degraded, is recommended for removal.

In Tamworth, many new housing estates sprang up in the post-war years as Birmingham residents sought to escape to a quieter life in the countryside – and as a result, many housing estates built to accommodate the new residents – such as those in Leyfields and Glascote (constructed in the 1960s) as well as Amington and Belgrave (1970s) – are likely to contain asbestos in their construction. If you know of any asbestos in your home, or you’re planning any major renovation work, it’s worth getting specialists like us to come and inspect the property, and quote for the safe clearing of your Tamworth premises.
