Asbestos
Asbestos is a naturally occurring group of silicate minerals that break into long, thin, durable fibers when mined. These fibers—chrysotile, amosite, crocidolite, tremolite, anthophyllite, and actinolite—were once widely used in insulation, flooring, roofing, and other building materials because of their strength and heat resistance.

Mould is a common result of moisture problems in a home. It belongs to the fungi family—along with mushrooms and yeasts—and is best known for causing food spoilage on items like bread and fruit. In nature, mould plays an essential role as a decomposer, but inside a home it can indicate underlying moisture issues that need attention.
