Commercial Asbestos Removal

Commercial asbestos removal is the process of safely identifying, removing and disposing of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) from commercial buildings and properties. ACM were often used in construction and building materials, including sheeting, piping, roofing and insulation. With many commercial facilities built before the asbestos ban came into effect in 2003, property owners are only now having to deal with the safe removal of ACM. Long-term asbestos exposure can lead to a range of severe respiratory diseases, including lung cancer and asbestosis. With this in mind, it’s essential to engage licensed asbestos removal professionals who are trained to remove and dispose of asbestos in line with safety regulations and requirements. Attempting to handle or remove asbestos without professional expertise can be extremely dangerous. Disturbing asbestos materials can release harmful fibers into the air, which, if inhaled, can lead to serious health issues such as lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma. Proper removal ensures the safety of both the property and its occupants, while preventing legal and health risks. Essential for compliance and planning, these reports are often needed for property transactions, renovations, or insurance claims. They guide safe removal or management actions, ensuring health and safety.
