Asbestos is a natural mineral that was commonly used in construction materials in the 20th century. However, it was later discovered that asbestos poses a significant health risk to humans. When asbestos-containing materials are damaged, they release tiny fibers into the air, which, when inhaled, can cause severe respiratory diseases such as asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

Unfortunately, Bowlers Town is not immune to asbestos-related risks. Many homes, offices, and industrial premises in the town were constructed during the peak period of asbestos use. As such, these buildings could contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). The only way to find out if your property has ACMs is to conduct a professional asbestos survey.
