If poorly managed, asbestos removal can leave householders and those removing asbestos materials with serious health problems. This new brochure aims to inform homeowners on the facts, risks and correct procedures of dealing with asbestos. Phil Pinnington, GGF Health, Safety and Facil- ities Manager, commented: “This guide should raise the awareness that asbestos is often present in domestic settings. By improving awareness, we hope homeowners will be better informed as to why professional companies such as those in GGF Membership are well placed to help manage its control and disposal if necessary.” If asbestos is suspected and work is being carried out that could disturb the material, the GGF advises homeowners to seek advice from a competent assessor.
