Many kinds of Asbestos have been used in the past in many different products.

If you happen live in a house that was built before the 1970s, there’s a good chance that asbestos was used in its construction. Even if your house was built since then, asbestos may still be found in some areas. In fact, only houses built within the last 10-15 years or so should be free of insulating asbestos, although it could very easily have been used in other forms.

You may find Asbestos in:
Insulating materials
Textured Ceilings
Roofing
Wall Cladding
Pipes & Boilers
Floor Coverings

Scientific and medical research has revealed that excessive exposure to inhaled asbestos dust can be dangerous to health.  Due to its composition, asbestos becomes dangerous when pieces of it break away and float in household air currents. Once breathed in, asbestos cannot leave the lungs. The fibers remained trapped and can exist and remain dormant for up to 50 years. Causing potentially life threatening conditions such as asbestosis and lung cancer.
