It is crucial to differentiate between licensed and non-licensed asbestos, although both require professional handling. Non-licensed asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are generally less prone to releasing fibres when disturbed, due to their matrix or binding. However, mishandling them can still lead to dangerous fibre release. If your property in Newark-On-Trent was built or refurbished before the year 2000, there's a good chance it contains some form of asbestos. Common non-licensed materials we safely remove include:

• Asbestos Cement Products: Found in garage roofs, shed roofs, guttering, downpipes, fascias, and soffits. These are prevalent in older Newark properties.
• Textured Coatings: Such as Artex on ceilings and walls.
• Vinyl Floor Tiles: Often containing asbestos, along with the bitumen adhesive used to fix them.
• Asbestos Paper: Used as backing to linoleum and some wall linings.
• Gaskets and Washers: Sometimes found in older plumbing systems.

Identifying these materials can be tricky. That's why professional asbestos testing is always recommended to confirm presence before any work begins. Our local experts are here to help you navigate these concerns.
