Asbestos Floor Tiles
Asbestos was once a very popular and versatile material used in many applications, including floor tiles. Its strength and heat resistance is what made Asbestos a common choice for flooring before the hazardous nature of the material was discovered. Asbestos floor tiles can often be found in older properties under carpets, or used as a material in old vinyl flooring.
Are Asbestos Floor Tiles dangerous?
Asbestos floor tiles are considered to be relatively safe unless there are plans to remove the flooring. It is difficult to tell if floor tiles contain Asbestos just from looking, so a professional opinion is always advised. If there are floor tiles in your property that contain Asbestos but they are safely intact, no or little action may be required. However, if the Asbestos tiles are crumbling or damaged, they must be carefully removed to avoid asbestos exposure.
If you have discovered damaged Asbestos flooring or are planning construction or renovation work and you suspect there may be Asbestos tiles in your commercial or residential property, it must always be handled by a trained professional.
