Determine when the building was constructed. If the building was constructed between 1920 and 1989, chances are something in the building was constructed with asbestos containing materials.
Roofs, gutters, facia boards, walls, flooring, pipes, textured paints, insulation, fireproofing materials, pipes, electric wiring, and even chalkboards could contain asbestos.
Samples are carefully taken from each suspect material to determine the presence, type and quantity of asbestos. Samples are examined by electron-microscopy (in association with the National Institute for Occupational Health), to clearly distinguish asbestos from other inorganic or organic fibers.
The first step in the asbestos removal process is testing and sampling. Bonded and friable containing materials have different removal procedures that must be followed.
Not all asbestos can be removed safely. In certain situations, it is more sensible to leave it where it is and seal off the harmful fibres. Asbestos Encapsulation is the process of coating the asbestos with a sealant, which penetrates the asbestos, hardening the fibres and preventing the release of asbestos dust.

Asbestos was extensively mined around the world, with South Africa leading the production of asbestos in the mid to late 1900s. By the 1970s, South Africa was one of the largest producers of asbestos, operating a thriving export trade with over 10 million tons of asbestos being mined in the country between 1910 and 2002.
The tiny fibres that make up asbestos were often added to other materials such as cloth, paper, plastic, building materials and other consumer goods to make them stronger and hardier. Asbestos comes in many different shapes and is not always easily identifiable.
These products include (amongst others):
Exposure to asbestos could lead to a number of serious diseases. Asbestos-related diseases can range from mild to malignant and life-threatening.
Due to the great variety of shapes and sizes that asbestos comes in, ranging from roofing tiles to insulation, floor linings, piping and more, the asbestos removal process can be quite complicated. The timeframe for asbestos removal varies greatly, depending on the amount of asbestos that is present and how accessible the area is. Asbestos removal costs also depend largely on the size of the job.
