Asbestos was widely used in building materials up until the 1990s, so if your property was built before this time, it is possible that it contains asbestos in some form. Asbestos can be found in many places within a building, including insulation, ceiling tiles, flooring, and roofing.

When these materials are disturbed or damaged, they can release asbestos fibres into the air, which can be inhaled and cause serious health problems. Asbestos fibres are particularly dangerous when they become airborne as they can be easily breathed in and cause lung damage and other diseases.

Asbestos removal is necessary to protect the health of anyone who may be working or living in the building. It is important to only trust a professional asbestos removal company to carry out this work, as attempting to remove asbestos without the right equipment or training can be extremely dangerous.
