What is Asbestos?
The asbestos roofing material was quite popular in the 1940s. It was superior to other available roofing materials available at that time in all senses as it was strong, resistant to weather conditions, fire-resistant and cost effective. Unfortunately, asbestos started to break down and release deadly asbestos fibres into the air over time. These microscopic particles penetrate the lungs and cause a number of serious issues to the homeowners and pets. Once the new information about serious health risks from asbestos was discovered, asbestos roofs were outlawed in 1985.
The risks of using Asbestos are now well known in Australia. Two thirds of homes constructed between World War II and mid 80s still contain asbestos in Newcastle. Currently, every year in Australia around 500 men and 100 women develop mesothelioma, and this is forcasted to increase to 900 new cases a year by 2020.
Why Replace Your Asbestos Roof?
Even though asbestos roofs are banned in Australia, there are a number of homeowners who are complacent about it. If you continue to live in a house with an asbestos roof and the structure is compromised, the occupants will breathe asbestos dust particles. The inhalation of the toxic material can cause serious life-threatening diseases such as cancer, mesothelioma and asbestosis.
A home with an asbestos roof can be hard to sell. People often hire us to provide condition reports on homes and will often not make offers on homes with Asbestos in them. If you live in a historic house with an asbestos roof, not removing the asbestos roof will bring down its resale value. So, when you are ready to sell your home, replacing the roof may expedite and even increase the total sale price of your home.
Living in a house with an asbestos roof will also make home insurance quite expensive. Thus, it is a good time to organize an asbestos roof removal and replacement in Newcastle to save money in the long run.
