Asbestos is a highly dangerous substance that was commonly used in building materials before its health risks were discovered. If asbestos fibres are released into the air and inhaled, they can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma.

That's why it's important to ensure that any asbestos-containing materials are disposed of correctly. If you are renovating or demolishing a building that may contain asbestos, you must get the services of a bonded and qualified asbestos removal company to handle the disposal.
