Asbestos, a naturally occurring silicate mineral, was widely used in building materials before its dangerous effects were discovered. Exposure to asbestos can lead to serious health problems, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. Asbestos can be found in a wide range of building materials, including insulation, roofing, flooring, and ceiling tiles.

If your building was constructed before 2000, it is possible that it contains asbestos. It is important to get an asbestos survey of your building in Fleet, Dorset, or South West England to determine if asbestos is present and to ensure its safe removal.
