Many properties in St Albans built or renovated before 2000 could have asbestos-containing floor tiles. These come in various forms, colours, and patterns, often found in kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, and even under carpets. The adhesive used to stick them down, typically a black bitumen compound, can also contain asbestos. It's almost impossible to identify these dangerous materials just by looking at them. Disturbing these tiles, whether through DIY renovation or accidental damage, is where the real danger lies. If you suspect your flooring might contain asbestos, it’s crucial you do not try to remove it yourself.
