COMMON LOCATIONS OF ASBESTOS
These are some common locations for asbestos, but there may be others in your home. If in doubt, leave it well alone and seek expert help. Common locations of asbestos include:
• Decorative textured artex coatings to ceilings and walls
• Vinyl or thermoplastic products (such as floor tiles or underlays)
• Wall panelling and boxings (such as lining in meter cupboards or service risers)
• Bituminous products (such as adhesive, damp proof course, roof felts)
• Gutters, rainwater pipes and soffit boards (asbestos cement products)
• Cold water cisterns or water tanks
• Corrugated sheets (such as garage or shed roofs)
• Thermal insulation (such as pipes, calorifiers, boilers)
• Sprayed coating (around steel frames)
This list is not exhaustive and only aims to provide an indication about the variety and extent of asbestos use.
