What action should you take if you discover asbestos materials in a property?
If you suspect that you have asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in a property, it's essential to proceed with caution and follow proper procedures to assess and manage the situation safely. Here's what to do:
Do Not Disturb: Avoid disturbing any suspected ACMs. Asbestos is most dangerous when its fibers are released into the air, so refrain from drilling, cutting, scraping, or otherwise disturbing materials that may contain asbestos.
Assessment: Hire a licensed asbestos inspector or accredited asbestos surveyor to assess the property and determine if asbestos-containing materials are present. They will conduct a thorough inspection, take samples if necessary, and provide a detailed report of their findings.
Risk Assessment: Based on the assessment results, the inspector will classify the risk posed by the asbestos-containing materials. They will identify whether the materials are friable (easily crumbled) or non-friable and assess the likelihood of fiber release.
Management Plan: Develop an asbestos management plan based on the assessment findings. This plan will outline how to safely manage and, if necessary, remove the asbestos-containing materials to minimize the risk of exposure.
Professional Assistance: If asbestos removal is required, hire licensed asbestos removal professionals like Brown Demolitions to handle the process. Attempting to remove asbestos without proper training and equipment can be extremely hazardous and is often illegal.
Safe Removal: If removal is deemed necessary, the licensed asbestos removal professionals will follow strict safety protocols to safely remove and dispose of the asbestos-containing materials. They will use appropriate containment measures to prevent fiber release and ensure proper disposal in accordance with local regulations.
