What is asbestos? This term refers to six naturally occurring minerals: Chrysotile, Amosite, Tremolite, Crocidolite, Anthophyllite, and Actinolite. These grow as veins within rock, and each contains microscopic fibres that can be released into the air. If they are breathed in, they can cause several serious diseases and health issues.
Asbestos was once widely used for its affordability, strength and versatility. It is highly chemically and fire-resistant and was often used for construction projects. It was finally banned from use in 1999.
Asbestos is present in over 3000 products. Common materials uses include:
- Asbestos insulation boards (soffits, ceiling tiles)
- Asbestos cement (flue pipes, roof tiles, guttering, flue pipes, roof sheets_
- Sprayed or textured coatings

Therefore, it is essential that when completing management surveys, you use accredited surveyors. Our surveyors always adhere to the strictest standards to provide you with peace of mind.
