Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM’s).
Asbestos is a mineral that was frequently used as a building material in the UK between 1940 and 1999. Although it was the most common in materials made around the 60s, 70s, and 80s. For this reason, any structure or product manufactured before the year 1999 (when the material was banned in the UK) has the potential to contain asbestos.

Asbestos could be hidden in your floor tiles. It is often in vinyl floors/tiles or the adhesive the floor was laid with. They were very popular, a good choice in the day. Some properties still find them under carpets.
How do I know if my ceiling has asbestos?
You will not know until you have an asbestos test done. If your property was built before 2000 there will be a high risk of having asbestos materials around your home. (ACM’s) as it was not banned in the U.K until 1999.
Artex in ceilings is the main suspect in most properties, it is quite dated now, so most people want an up to date ceiling.
