Asbestos in soffits worry

Hi there

 

ive not written a post like this before so please bear with me. We've just had our soffits sorted out just outside our bedroom. Only since needing them repaired did we learn they contained asbestos. They have been rotting/chipping for a while. Whilst blissfully unaware of the asbestos twist, we used to keep our window open (just below) and now I'm worried that some might have made its way into our bedroom, where our little baby also sleeps. Any advice on this would be much appreciated... TIA

  • Hi Benji77,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. Unfortunately it's difficult to advise on this. It's worth noting that those who are affected are usually those who have been exposed to high levels over a long period of time. There is further information available here. There are also a number of other discussions on this forum that may also provide useful info - you can find these by using the search button in the blue bar above.

    Wishing you all the best,
