If your building was constructed prior to the year 2000, it likely was built with asbestos-containing materials. In Chorlton, an asbestos survey is needed. Asbestos was regarded as the ‘wonder’ material added to building materials. It contains many properties including strength, inexpensive, and is widely available. It also offered excellent sound and heat insulation, as well as great fire resistance. When materials that contain asbestos are disturbed or damaged, fibres are released into the air. These fibres can be inhaled and cause serious diseases. These diseases include mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis. Unfortunately, there is no cure for these diseases. It is known as the ‘hidden killer’, and causes around 5,000 deaths per year in the UK.
