If you disturb asbestos, tiny fibres can be released into the air. You usually can't see them, but once they are airborne, they can easily be breathed in. This is why damaged or disturbed asbestos is a serious risk and should always be handled with care. Many people only find out asbestos is present after work has already started. In this guide, we explain why disturbed asbestos is dangerous, where it is often hidden in older properties, and what to do if you think you have accidentally disturbed it.
Asbestos can be found in many different types of buildings, from family homes and garages to offices, industrial premises and other commercial properties. Although the circumstances may differ, the priority remains the same: identifying potential asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and ensuring they are managed safely and appropriately. At ID Asbestos, we support both domestic and commercial clients across Norfolk and Suffolk, providing professional asbestos surveys , testing , management advice and removal services to suit the requirements of each project.
Buying a property is one of the biggest investments you’ll make. But it also comes with complexities when asbestos is found. An asbestos survey can save you money.
