Affordable Asbestos Removal Cardiff

Asbestos shingles were a common roofing material in the past, but they pose a significant health risk due to the presence of asbestos. If you're planning to dispose of asbestos shingles in Caerphilly, it's essential to follow the guidelines set by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) to ensure a safe and compliant removal process.

Asbestos is a hazardous material that can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma, when inhaled. When asbestos shingles are disturbed, they release airborne fibers that can be inhaled, posing a significant risk to human health.

To safely dispose of asbestos shingles, it's crucial to hire skilled and licensed asbestos contractors who have the necessary training and equipment to handle the job. At Helix Environmental Ltd, our team of experts has over 10 years of experience in asbestos removal and disposal, and we follow all HSE guidelines to ensure a safe and compliant process.

When removing asbestos shingles, our team takes several safety precautions to minimize the risk of exposure:

• We wear personal protective equipment (PPE) to prevent skin contact and inhalation of asbestos fibers.
• We use specialized equipment to contain the asbestos and prevent it from becoming airborne.
• We follow a strict removal plan to ensure that all asbestos materials are safely removed and disposed of.

In some cases, asbestos shingles may not need to be removed entirely. Encapsulation involves sealing the asbestos shingles with a specialized coating to prevent the release of airborne fibers. However, this method is not always suitable, and removal may be necessary.
Once the asbestos shingles are removed, they are disposed of at a licensed waste facility that specializes in hazardous waste disposal. We ensure that all asbestos materials are handled and disposed of in accordance with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

If you're planning to dispose of asbestos shingles in Caerphilly, it's essential to have a plan in place to ensure a safe and compliant process. Here are some steps to follow:

• Contact a licensed asbestos contractor, such as Helix Environmental Ltd, to assess the situation and provide a quote for removal and disposal.
• Ensure that the contractor follows all HSE guidelines and has the necessary training and equipment to handle the job.
• Obtain a waste transfer note from the contractor to ensure that the asbestos materials are disposed of at a licensed waste facility.
