Asbestos was widely used in residential and commercial construction materials until the 1980s when it was discovered that inhaling asbestos fibers can cause serious and fatal health complications. Asbestos is a mineral that was used in building materials such as insulation, roofing materials, floor tiles, and ceiling tiles.

Older homes in Nutbourne may contain asbestos, especially if they were built before 1980. Although asbestos was banned in the UK in the 1990s, many buildings still contain a considerable amount of asbestos materials. Asbestos needs to be removed from your home or business premises to ensure the safety of everyone who uses the space.
