Asbestos is a natural mineral commonly used in homes and commercial buildings in the UK from the mid-1800s until 1999, when the government banned it due to serious health and safety problems. Up to 50 percent of homes built before 1999 could contain asbestos.

Materials that contain asbestos can become dangerous if they’re damaged or allowed to deteriorate because they can release microscopic fibres that are easily inhaled. Inhaling asbestos may lead to incurable lung diseases and cancer.
