Where am I likely find asbestos in my property in Pontefract?
Asbestos was used extensively across the construction sector for many years until it was fully banned from use in the UK in 1999 because of the health risks it poses to people who breath it in. Asbestos has excellent fire protection properties, is good at insulating, whilst also being strong and cheap, so its no surprise it was utilised so widely.
Examples of some of the most common places we find asbestos in commercial properties includes -
Asbestos cement sheets
Ceiling and floor tiles
Lagging (insulation on pipes)
Cladding
Textured coatings such as Artex
Sprayed on coatings
Partitions
The above examples show just how varied asbestos can be used across a property. The HSE have a graphic which shows some other common areas asbestos can be found within industrial settings.
