mikeyblue 28 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Hi All, Thinking of a carreer change. Ive worked on sites around the UK and bumped into asbestos strippers here and there. They usually seem to be on a good screw with plenty of work on. Currently I have feck all work and was concidering doing one of the stripping courses and ringing around some companys for work. Im aware of the dangers, I was wondering what the other pros and cons are. Kind Regards, Mikey. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
