Asbestos can be found in a wide range of building materials such as ceiling tiles, floor tiles, insulation, roofing, and even cement. In many cases, asbestos materials are perfectly safe provided they are left undisturbed. However, once asbestos-containing materials start to degrade, they can release asbestos fibres into the air, which can be dangerous when inhaled.

According to the UK Health and Safety Executive, around 5,000 people in the UK die each year from asbestos-related illnesses. This requires homeowners and businesses to take measures to prevent exposure to this harmful substance. Asbestos testing can identify if your property contains asbestos, which can help prevent exposure to your family, employees, and visitors.
