Asbestos was widely used as a building material until the 1980s, and many properties built before this time may contain asbestos. This material is highly resistant to fire, heat, and chemicals, which made it a popular choice for insulation, roofing, and other building applications.

However, when asbestos fibers are released into the air, they can be inhaled and cause serious health problems. These fibers are microscopic and can remain airborne for long periods of time, making it difficult to detect their presence. Over time, asbestos exposure can lead to lung cancer, mesothelioma, and other respiratory illnesses.
