FAQ's
Asbestos is a mineral that occurs naturally and boasts properties that make it resistant to heat, corrosion and electricity. These properties once made asbestos a popular material for construction and a range of other applications, until the dangers of using it began to become apparent. There are 6 different types of asbestos, which means asbestos can vary in colour and appearance. Professional asbestos removal companies are trained to identify these different types of asbestos and ensure safe removal and disposal.
The 6 types of asbestos are:
- Chrysotile asbestos – The most common type of asbestos. Often found in roofing, walls and flooring of older buildings and has a white appearance.
- Crocidolite asbestos – Once used for insulation of steam engines and as an ingredient in cement products. Has a blue appearance.
- Amosite – Once popular for insulating pipes. Has a brown appearance.
- Tremolite – A fibrous material that is often found in Chrysotile asbestos.
- Actinolite – Contains concentrated levels of magnesium. Can be green, blue, white or yellow in appearance, making identification difficult.
- Anthophyllite – One of the most likely types of asbestos to be inhaled. Commonly part of other asbestos forms.
In older homes, asbestos may be present in exterior fibre cement cladding and weatherboards, artificial brick cladding, corrugated cement roofing, flue pipes, vinyl floor tiles, textured paint, bathroom linings, cement pipe columns, ceiling insulation, and insulation on hot water pipes, heaters and stoves. If you suspect your home could contain asbestos, arranging an inspection with licensed asbestos removalists is the best way to keep you and your family safe.
Yes, asbestos is a carcinogenic material that’s very harmful. When asbestos fibres are breathed in, they can become permanently trapped within the body, causing issues such as inflammation, scarring and cancer. The effects of asbestos accumulate with every exposure, and there is no way to reverse the damage it causes.
You can’t identify asbestos simply by looking at it, as the fibres are very small and difficult to distinguish. Asbestos was outlawed in 2003 for its severe health risks, which means older homes and buildings which haven’t been renovated are likelier to have it. If you suspect that asbestos might be present, you should arrange testing by a professional, after which it can be safely removed and disposed of.
