Asbestos is a well-known and widely used substance that was commonly used in buildings built before 2000. It is a naturally occurring mineral that is characterized by its unique properties of being strong, heat-resistant, and versatile. Asbestos was used in a variety of products, including insulation, flooring, roofing, and ceiling tiles, among others.

The problem with asbestos is that when it is disturbed, tiny fibers are released into the air which can be inhaled by people. These fibers can cause severe health problems in the long run. Prolonged exposure to asbestos fibers can lead to respiratory problems, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

Asbestos has been banned in the United Kingdom since 1999. However, many homes, buildings, and structures still contain asbestos-containing materials. Thats where our asbestos testing services come in.
