Do you suspect or have you already confirmed the presence of asbestos in your tile adhesive? It's important to act quickly and responsibly to avoid harmful health consequences. Asbestos can be hidden in old tile adhesives and grouts, especially in bathrooms and kitchens from before the 1980s. If you're considering removing tiles or renovating a room, it's essential to take the right precautions.
What does it mean if there is asbestos in your tile adhesive?
Asbestos fibres are dangerous when released into the air, typically when sanding, breaking down or removing old tile adhesive. When inhaled, these fibres can cause serious lung diseases such as asbestosis and lung cancer. If you're about to undertake a renovation, it's crucial to check for the presence of asbestos in the material.
Do you suspect asbestos in your tile adhesive?
If your house was built before the 1980s and you have old tiles, there may be asbestos in the tile adhesive. It can't be seen with the naked eye, so it is recommended to have a asbestos testbefore you start work. Our experts can quickly and safely analyse samples and advise you on the best solution.
What do you do if you have already been diagnosed with asbestos?
Have you confirmed the presence of asbestos in the tile adhesive? Then you should contact an authorised company immediately. Do not remove it yourself as it can spread dangerous fibres into the air. Miljø Gruppen specialises in the safe removal of asbestos removal and can help you all the way through the process.
