Asbestos Removal and Safe Handling Services: Why Professionals Should Do This Job?

August 31, 2017

When it comes time to demolishing a building or structure, it is not only advised to hire a demolition expert, but one that offers asbestos removal and safe handling services. Safety is the main reason for this, as asbestos is proven to be a hazardous material that can cause numerous health related problems, such as cancer, and non-cancerous respiratory diseases when fibres are inhaled that could cause cardiac failure, among other things.

With that said, typically experts are the ones who remove asbestos during demolition jobs, as the risk of exposure is too great for untrained and ill-equipped labourers. Asbestos removal should not be taken lightly, even when money can be saved by either hiring general labourers or the property owner themselves undertakes demolition of a building known to have asbestos material in the roofing, ceilings, or other areas.

Asbestos Removal and Safe Handling Services Should Always be Done by Professionals

There is no need to risk removing asbestos materials when there are professionals like Simcat Demolitions available to do it for you. It is not easy removing hazardous materials from a building properly – safely. Protective gear and specialised tests must be used during the removal process.

As a professional demolition company, Simcat will conceal the area to be demolished with plastic, so that no asbestos fibre are released into the air during the whole process, or until all asbestos material is safely removed. As contaminated material is removed, it is placed inside plastic bags for safe transporting to an authorised disposal site. Because of the dangers involved during removal, safety is always our first priority at Simcat.
