Many homeowners are unsure about asbestos types. Non-licensed asbestos refers to materials that, while still hazardous, pose a lower risk of releasing dangerous fibres if handled correctly. Common examples in homes and commercial buildings in Boston include asbestos cement products like garage roofs, shed panels, soffits, fascias, and drainpipes. You might also find it in textured coatings (Artex), vinyl floor tiles, and certain roofing felts. Whilst seemingly less dangerous than licensed materials, these still demand professional handling to prevent fibre release. Our team is fully trained to identify and safely manage these specific types of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).

Attempting to remove asbestos yourself, regardless of its classification, is never advisable. Disturbing asbestos materials without the correct training, personal protective equipment (PPE), and controlled procedures can release microscopic asbestos fibres into the air. These fibres, if inhaled, pose serious long-term health risks.
