Why would my property in Wyke contain asbestos?
Asbestos was used in the construction sector for decades and wasn't fully banned in the UK until 1999, which means if your property in Wyke was constructed or renovated before the year 2000 then you should assume that it could contain asbestos.
We provide asbestos surveys, to determine if your property contains asbestos and if so what type, as well as asbestos removal, which we aim to work around the needs of your business or operations as much as possible, to create minimal disturbance.
Asbestos containing materials can be found all over a property, and below are a few examples, however this graphic on the HSE website gives a far better indicator of how wide spread it can be, and why you should always have an asbestos survey carried out if you are unsure -
Lagging on pipes and boilers
Loose fill insulation
Asbestos cement
Asbestos insulation board
Panels in windows and doors
Floor and roof tiles
Panel in fire doors and windows
