Do all properties have asbestos in them?
In short, no. However, asbestos containing materials were used in the construction sector in the UK for decades, which means it is in a large percentage of properties constructed before the year 2000, as it was banned from use in 1999.
Examples of where we commonly find asbestos containing materials when we carry out an asbestos survey includes -
Lagging on pipes and boilers
Loose fill insulation
Asbestos cement
Asbestos insulation board
Panels in windows and doors
Floor and roof tiles
There are many more places where asbestos was used across a property though. The HSE has an image that shows this well. It is always best to consult an asbestos removal company like BLS Asbestos Ltd, if you suspect you have asbestos in your property and we can provide clear guidance on the type of asbestos, as well as execute a plan for it quick and safe removal.
