Can Asbestos still be found in buildings and homes?
Yes. Asbestos has been used in a wide variety of products and materials and can still be found in building and construction materials such as insulation, fire retardant, shingles, tiles, drywall, plaster, popcorn ceilings, and cement products.
Asbestos can be released in the air during renovation and construction activities can increase the chances of health complications. Asbestos is a silicate mineral and carcinogen which contains fibrous crystals.
The most dangerous asbestos types include Amosite and Crocidolite. Due to its durability and resistance to heat, asbestos has been used in thousands of products including brake pads, roofs and piping.
