Frequently Asked Questions
Asbestos fibers can be released into the air when asbestos-containing materials are disturbed or damaged. This poses health hazards like mesothelioma, lung cancer and incurable, progressive asbestosis.
Duty holders must identify if asbestos is present in their buildings and manage it safely to reduce health risks.
By law, every non-domestic building should maintain an asbestos register. This record tells us where asbestos is in the building and what state it’s in. It also has a plan for handling the asbestos safely. Failure to have this register can result in fines of up to £20,000.
Asbestos waste has to be double-bagged in approved thick sacks, labelled as asbestos, and hauled in covered trucks to hazardous landfills. It can’t be taken to normal tips. There’s strict documentation and tracking to confirm proper disposal.
Under no circumstances. Untrained or unequipped homeowners risk toxic exposures and contamination. Asbestos is designated a “Controlled Waste” for good reason per Environmental Permitting Regulations.
Prices vary depending on the extent of asbestos, its accessibility, and how much work is involved. Please contact TLC Environmental for a custom quote.
Undamaged asbestos floor tiles are usually low-risk if covered by other floors. But over time they can become friable. Removing them prevents that and avoids exposure during any future flooring work. Encapsulation is another option. Please consult our team to be safe.
Don’t disturb it. Our certified professionals can analyse such areas, determining appropriate risk reduction steps accordingly.
Where encapsulation is technically possible, sealing asbestos in situ can control fibre release risks more reliably than removal processes.
Unlikely. While still unsafe, short exposures are far less concerning than frequent higher exposures.
