Asbestos in houses.

12/4/2018

3 Comments

 
Asbestos can be found in most houses built prior to 1985, so if your worried about living in a house with Asbestos, then buying a house older than 1985 is going to be an issue for you.
Asbestos overall if left undamaged is a relatively safe product and can not cause any issues to the home owner. Unfortunately however accidents can happen and sheets can easily be damaged exposing dangerous asbestos fibers in the sheeting. If the house is likely to have renovations done in the future this can be expensive if the asbestos based products are to be modified in any way. Cutting, drilling, sanding, even scraping the product is dangerous and removal or dumping of the product requires a special license and is expensive.
I have a link that explains the dangers here, if you wanted to read more about the dangers and issues involved.  https://www.asbestos.com/abatement-guide/
