Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was widely used in building materials from the 1950s to the 1980s. It is an excellent insulator and fire retardant, which is why it was commonly used in insulation, flooring, roofing, and other construction materials. However, asbestos is also highly toxic when it becomes airborne, and inhaling its fibers can cause serious health problems.

Asbestos fibers are invisible to the naked eye, and they can be released into the air when asbestos-containing materials are disturbed or damaged. If you suspect that your building contains asbestos, it is essential to have it inspected by a licensed professional. At Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire, we provide comprehensive asbestos surveys to identify and assess the presence of asbestos in your building.
