A 'snagging' survey is usually recommended by a professional building surveyor. Snagging surveys are a form of building inspection that is only performed on new properties. A surveyor will find any obvious problems with the building of the property. For example, the property might have been constructed in violation of federal building regulations like using asbestos.
The U.S. banned most asbestos products in July 1989 as recommended by the US Environmental Protection Agency. This building material has claimed the lives of more than twelve thousand US citiziens. Every year, thousands of workers in the U.S. are directly affected by this dangerous building material. It is an alarming figure that directly affects many tradesmen, many of whom have been exposed to asbestos for many years. While Asbestos-based products are now much less common in the US, there is still a lot of asbestos products that can be found in American homes.
What should I do if asbestos or other hazardous substances are present?
When asbestos-containing materials become damaged or disturbed, harmful fibres may be released. People living nearby can inhale these fibres and develop severe, long-term diseases. These diseases may not affect you immediately, but they could lead to serious and possibly fatal conditions. To protect their loved ones and themselves, it is important that homeowners take preventive measures and have their homes inspected by an inspector.

Also known as lung cancer called pleura and affecting the lining of the lower digestive tract (peritoneum), Mesothelioma is a type of mesothelioma. This is most often caused by prolonged asbestos exposure. It is typically in its final stages when it is diagnosed by a doctor. Asbestos lung cancer is the same as other forms of lung cancer. There will be at least one death due to mesothelioma for every person who has died from it. Asbestosis, a serious scarring condition that affects the lungs, is usually caused by long-term asbestos exposure. This condition can lead to severe breathing problems and death in some cases. Pleural thickening is the most frequent health problem that results from asbestos exposure. The lining of your lungs is called pleura and it thickens. It can cause discomfort or shortness of breathing.
