Commonly used for fire protection, this material is often found in older soffits, partition walls and boiler cupboards throughout residential and commercial buildings in Euxton within pre-1999 properties.
Frequently used in roofing sheets, garage panels and external cladding, it remains one of the most widespread asbestos products still present across properties in the North West.
Often applied to older heating and water systems, this type of insulation is usually hidden behind boxing, in basements or within loft spaces.
Still present beneath many kitchens, hallways and commercial floors, these durable tiles and adhesives were widely installed throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s.
Popular as a decorative finish on ceilings and walls, this textured coating was used for decades and is still commonly found during refurbishments.
Found in corrugated roofing sheets, fascia boards and outbuildings, these materials were widely used for weather protection and structural durability.
Often used in kitchens and bathrooms, older vinyl sheeting can contain asbestos in the backing layer, especially in homes built before the late 1990s.
Installed around heaters, ducts and fire-protected areas, these panels were chosen for their heat resistance and are regularly uncovered during renovation work.
Found in older household items like ironing boards, heat-resistant mats and vintage plant pots, these rarer products are occasionally uncovered.
