Asbestos Bathroom Removal

Asbestos was commonly used in bathrooms and other wet areas of the home because of it’s waterproof properties and durability. Asbestos linings in bathrooms came in two main categories. Standard asbestos sheeting and a product called Tilux. Firstly standard asbestos sheeting has the look and feel of modern non asbestos linings. Once tiled over or painted it takes a trained professional to indicate whether there is a possibility of asbestos in the linings of the bathroom. Tilux on the other hand is very easy to spot, it has a distinct mottled finish, almost a natural marble like appearance. Tilux traditionally has a thin aluminium cover strip over all joins which usually have screws holding them in. The removal method of Tilux and standard sheeting is similar and usually costs the same.
