Asbestos was once a popular building material due to its fire-resistant properties and durability. However, with time, it became apparent that exposure to asbestos posed serious health hazards. Inhaling asbestos fibers can lead to the development of deadly diseases such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. Long-term and regular exposure can also wreak havoc on your respiratory system, leading to chronic conditions that can impact your quality of life.

It is important to note that asbestos levels are usually not harmful when left undisturbed, but any disturbance can release the harmful fibers into the air, posing potential health hazards. Therefore, when undertaking any renovation, refurbishment or demolition, it is essential to identify and remove any asbestos within the affected area.
