Does my home contain asbestos?
If your home was built before 1990, there’s probably a high chance the building materials contain asbestos. Though these materials can go largely undisturbed for many years, there is a huge risk that asbestos containing materials can deteriorate and release fibres if left unchecked. It’s also a common cause of concern for people who conduct DIY renovation projects, as most people are either unaware of the dangers of asbestos or are unable to identify it properly. In fact, the most common areas of a home to renovate (bathroom, kitchen, and laundry) are often at a higher risk of containing asbestos.
Areas that asbestos is commonly found include:
- Internal walls and ceiling
- Internal angle mouldings
- Carpet underlay
- Water pipes
- Roofing
- Spray on insulation
- Fences
Dangers of living with asbestos
Asbestos is particularly dangerous for lungs as the human body can’t break the material down. Exposure can result in a chronic lung disease called ‘asbestosis’ or Mesothelioma, a form of malignant lung cancer which is unfortunately almost always fatal and can end up popping up decades after exposure. Though the majority of people will have some form of low exposure to asbestos at some point in their life time (in can be found in soil, water and air) people who have experienced it on a regular basis or at a high dose that are at the most risk of falling sick.
