Understanding the risks of asbestos
Asbestos, once widely used in construction, is now recognised as a serious health hazard. Inhalation of asbestos fibres can cause long-term health issues, including lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma. If you live or work in a building built before 2000, asbestos materials might be present.
We provide asbestos surveys that help identify areas where asbestos is found, and assess the level of risk it poses to occupants. Our team conducts visual inspections and risk assessments to determine the best course of action. Whether you need asbestos removals for a small residential property or a large commercial building, we ensure all plans and procedures meet the highest standards of safety.
Understanding the Importance of Asbestos Surveys
Before any building renovation or demolition work, an asbestos survey is critical to assess the risk and plan for safe asbestos removal. Our asbestos survey service in Southend is thorough, ensuring that no hidden asbestos goes unnoticed. This process involves:
- Visual inspection of the premises to identify asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).
- Risk assessment to determine the level of danger posed by any asbestos detected.
- Sampling and testing of materials, using UKAS-accredited laboratories.
Once the survey is complete, we provide detailed reports with clear recommendations on the next steps. If asbestos is found, we’ll provide you with a plan of action for removal or management, ensuring that all asbestos removal services follow current regulations.
