Asbestos, a fibrous silicate mineral, was widely used in the UK until its complete ban in 1999 due to serious health risks, including respiratory diseases and cancers. Despite the ban, many pre-2000 buildings still contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), necessitating careful management or removal to prevent hazardous exposure.
The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) governs asbestos management in the UK, outlining two primary categories for asbestos removal: licensed and non-licensed.

Asbestos is a hazardous material that was widely used in construction before its dangers were fully understood. While some asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) require a licensed contractor for removal, others can be handled by trained professionals under non-licensed asbestos removal regulations. But what exactly does non-licensed asbestos removal entail?
