Why Asbestos Is Still a Risk on the Central Coast
Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) were widely used in residential and commercial buildings across the Central Coast up until the late 1980s. Today, many structures still contain asbestos in materials such as:
Corrugated cement roofing and eaves
Wall linings and ceiling panels
Vinyl floor tiles and adhesives
Wet area sheeting in bathrooms and laundries
Garage walls, fences, and cladding
Pipe insulation and lagging
Contaminated soil or fill from historical dumping
When disturbed, these materials can release dangerous airborne fibres that can cause mesothelioma, asbestosis, and lung cancer. The only way to know for certain is to have materials professionally tested.
