Asbestos Removal Blackpool

A well-known building material applied widely across construction projects between the 1930s and 1990s, asbestos was used extensively up until it was banned in the UK in 1999. Asbestos rose in popularity due to its highly insulating and fire-resistant properties. However, as the awareness of the serious health risks associated with asbestos grew, this is what led to the UK government imposing a number of regulations relating to the use of asbestos, and voluntary bans were rolled out across the whole country. 

Multiple bans on asbestos-use continued for decades, before the ultimate ban on buying, selling, importing and exporting all types of ACMs came to fruition in November of 1999. While properties built after this period are less likely to contain asbestos, the risk of its presence can never truly be ruled out.

A large seaside resort located on the North-West coast of England, Blackpool is best known for the infamous Blackpool Tower, Blackpool Tower Ballroom and Blackpool Pleasure Beach, among many other well-loved attractions.

The coastal town that is now bustling with entertainment, was once a pioneer for electrical power during the 1870s. In 1879, it became the world’s first municipality with electric street lighting along the promenade, which set the stage for the Blackpool Illuminations.

However, the introduction of streetlighting unfortunately came with the use of asbestos. Asbestos was once used in the manufacture of streetlighting, particularly for old lanterns, where it was used as a heat insulator for wiring located close to the heat of the lamp. It was also used in braided rope form as a door seal on some lantern bowl-rings and on older control-box doors.
