Where Can Asbestos Be Found
The amount of asbestos that can be found within a home depends on when the home was built or renovated. If the house was built before the mid-1970s, there is a good chance of finding asbestos-containing materials. However, asbestos was still used in homes into the 1980s, and in some home and construction products made through today.
These materials can be found in a variety of places ranging from the roof to the basement, including roofing and siding shingles, textured paint and patching compounds, fire-resistant materials built into floors and walls around wood burning stoves, some vinyl floor tiles and vinyl sheet flooring and adhesives, vinyl wall coverings, ceiling tiles, and “popcorn” textured coatings, inside hot water and steam pipes in older houses, and other products.
