Why your ceiling might be hazardous

If your home was built before the year 2000 and it has artex (bumps and patterns in the ceiling plaster), the artex might have small amounts of asbestos in it. White asbestos was used in the making of artex to strengthen it until asbestos in construction was finally banned. So what should you do about it now? Winifred Robinson hears from a listener who has artex and finds out more.

First broadcast on You & Yours, 6 April 2017.
