Many properties built before the year 2000, especially in areas like Hingham, might have floor tiles that contain asbestos. These often look like vinyl, thermoplastic, or bitumen-backed tiles, usually 9x9 or 12x12 inches, laid with a black, tar-like adhesive. Left undisturbed and in good condition, they generally pose a low risk. However, if they become damaged, cracked, or you’re planning renovations that might disturb them, that’s when fibres can release, creating a potential health hazard. If you suspect you have them, the best step is to avoid touching them and give us a call for professional advice.
