Where can asbestos be found in my property?

Asbestos was commonly used in the UK because of its insulating properties and if your property was built before the Millennium then you should assume that asbestos resides there.

Before it was fully understood about the negative impact breathing in asbestos can have on human life, asbestos was used widely across the construction sector for decades. Examples of where we commonly find it when carrying out asbestos surveys includes -

• Asbestos cement which is regularly found on guttering and downpipes
• Textured wall coatings such as Artex
• Floor and ceiling tiles
• Sprayed on coatings on ceilings, walls and floors
• Lagging, which was commonly used as insulation on pipes and boilers

Landlords of commercial properties are responsible for their own asbestos management and the HSE has a good page showing what asbestos looks like.

If you suspect your commercial property in Worksop has asbestos residing in it then get in touch with us and we can provide guidance on what your next steps should be.
