Staying safe afterwards:

Avoid these

Common reasons for removal jobs in Boarshead
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Finds during refurbishment
- Asbestos garages
- Broken sheets in gardens
At a school such as Beacon Academy, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
