How common is it for asbestos to be in properties in the modern day?

Asbestos was used for decades in the construction sector across the UK.

Buildings constructed in the year 2000 are unlikely to have asbestos in them, however if your property was constructed or renovated in 1999 or earlier, then you should assume that it could contain asbestos (More can be read about this on the HSE website).

Some of the most popular places we come across asbestos when carrying out asbestos surveys are -

• Pipe lagging
• Insulation
• Wall boards
• Asbestos cement sheets and roof tiles
• Ceiling and floor tiles
• Artex (used decoratively on walls)

It can be difficult to know what asbestos looks like, which is why it is important that an asbestos removal company like BLS Asbestos Ltd carry out a survey for you before removing any asbestos containing materials safely.
