How is Asbestos Telecom Removal Conducted?
The process involves identifying asbestos, setting up controlled work areas, and safely removing and disposing of the materials using specialised equipment and PPE.
Can Telecom Work Continue During Asbestos Removal?
We strive to minimise disruption, and removal can often be scheduled to coincide with maintenance windows or off-peak hours to avoid service interruptions.
How Long Does the Removal Process Take?
The time required depends on the extent and location of the asbestos. An initial survey will provide an accurate schedule and plan for the work.
What Safety Measures Are Used During Telecom Removal?
Containment, air monitoring, and strict access control are used to ensure that asbestos fibres do not pose a risk to workers or the public.
Is Air Testing Conducted After Removal?
Yes, air testing is performed to ensure the area is safe and that no asbestos fibres remain after the removal work.
