Asbestos Removal in Fetcham

If you are in the village of Fetcham and concerned about asbestos, our friendly team is only a call away. The name covers several types of the mineral; the two most commonly used were white asbestos (chrysotile) and brown asbestos (amosite), though there are six varieties in all, and while some are more dangerous than others, none is good for your health.

Asbestos is made up of long, thin fibres that take on a fluffy texture when pulled apart, and those same properties saw it used to insulate everything from buildings, boilers and pipes to car brakes and floor tiles. The trouble is that when it is damaged or disturbed it releases smaller fibres that can be breathed in or swallowed, and even in its natural state it can be dangerous, which is why it is so important to have it removed from any building or site in Fetcham.

Its popularity soared during the industrial age, and it was not until the 1970s that the harm became clear; even so, it was not fully banned in the UK until 1999. It was widely used in insulating boards to protect buildings and ships from fire, and in cement for roofing sheets and pipes.
