What is Asbestos
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was commonly used in building materials until the 1990s in Nanaimo, B.C. While it has fire-retardant and insulating properties, it is also extremely hazardous to our health.
Exposure to asbestos can lead to serious respiratory problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. Because the effects of asbestos exposure can take years to develop, it's essential to take precautions when renovating an older home.
