Why Test for Asbestos?

Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are hazardous to your health when disturbed, and the microscopic fibres become airborne. When these fibres enter your respiratory system, they lead to several serious health problems. Asbestos exposure may cause lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. Symptoms of these illnesses often appear years after the initial exposure, making it difficult to detect, treat or cure them.

Additionally, before any renovation, refurbishment or demolition, it is mandatory to have an asbestos survey to identify any asbestos-containing materials to ensure their proper disposal. An asbestos survey can prove valuable to homeowners, landlords and property managers.

How to Identify Materials That Contain Asbestos

As a homeowner or a property manager, it can be challenging to identify materials containing asbestos. Asbestos-containing materials come in various shapes, sizes, and colours, making it impossible to determine visually. The only way to confirm asbestos-containing materials is through conducting an asbestos survey.

However, there are some signs that you may observe, indicating that you may have asbestos-containing materials in your property. Materials installed before 2000 have a high likelihood of containing asbestos, especially insulation materials. Similarly, some vinyl flooring, roofing materials, and textured decorative coating may contain asbestos.
