Asbestos is a highly hazardous substance that could pose serious health risks if not disposed of correctly. Asbestos refers to six naturally occurring minerals that were widely used in building materials until their danger was discovered. Asbestos exposure is linked to a range of health issues, such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis.

If your property was built before 2000, there is a high likelihood that asbestos was used in various materials in your home, including insulation, roofing, siding, and flooring. Therefore, if you are planning to remodel or demolish your property, the asbestos must be disposed of correctly. Disposing of it improperly could lead to contamination and adverse health effects.
