A builder friend commented to say there may be an asbestos boiler affecting the flat. What is asbestos, is there a danger and what does the surveyor do?
Asbestos is a harmful substance formed from metamorphic rocks. Chrysotile (White), Amosite (Brown) and Crocidolite (Blue) are often building materials for example eaves. Its use is widespread, for example - as it has characteristic heat resistance properties, it may be found in ironing boards. Technically all forms are dangerous and can lead to lung cancer or scarring of the lung if inhaled over sustained periods. Finding asbestos does not necessarily constitute a risk to health.
If found, care should be taken not to displace the asbestos and expert advice should be sought as soon as possible. Never endeavour to disturb it yourself.
Surveyors do not test for asbestos on a survey. However, surveyors will mention suspected asbestos and should offer advice.
