Asbestos is a hazardous material that was commonly used in construction materials until it was banned in the UK in 1999. Asbestos was once thought to be a wonder material because of its fire-resistant and insulating properties. Unfortunately, it was discovered that it caused serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma.

Asbestos can be found in various forms, including:

• Blue asbestos (crocidolite)
• Brown asbestos (amosite)
• White asbestos (chrysotile)
• Anthophyllite asbestos
• Tremolite asbestos
• Actinolite asbestos

Because asbestos materials are still present in many buildings today, it is important to have an asbestos survey to determine whether or not your property contains the hazardous material. This is where Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire comes in.
