You might wonder what constitutes 'non-licensed' asbestos. These are typically materials with lower asbestos fibre content or those where the fibres are more firmly bound within a matrix, making them less likely to release dangerous levels of fibres unless poorly handled. However, make no mistake: these materials are still hazardous. Common non-licensed asbestos items we frequently encounter in properties around Kingston Upon Hull include:

• Asbestos Cement Products: Found in garage roofs, sheds, downpipes, gutters, and fascias.
• Textured Coatings: Such as Artex on ceilings and walls.
• Vinyl Floor Tiles: And the bitumen adhesive used to fix them.
• Asbestos Paper: Often used as insulation or backing in various applications.
• Bitumen Products: Including roofing felts and damp-proof courses.

While the immediate risk of fibre release might be lower than with licensable materials, any disturbance – through renovation, repair, or accidental damage – can release harmful asbestos fibres into the air. This is why professional non-licensed asbestos removal is absolutely crucial.
