- Asbestos management survey (formally Type 2) – This survey will clarify if known or suspected asbestos could be disturbed during day-to-day use of the building. Asbestos-containing material in good condition is not a health risk; however, the presence of asbestos must always be monitored and recorded. This type of survey is relatively straightforward to complete.
- Asbestos refurbishment/demolition survey (formally Type 3) – This survey is completed if a building is to be renovated, upgraded or demolished. Due to the high likelihood of asbestos being disturbed by such an event, it is a much more invasive survey and part of an overall risk assessment.
Quick & Easy Asbestos Sampling
Asbestos analysis is important due to the prevalence of asbestos in many old buildings. Often mixed with other materials, asbestos disturbed during renovation or demolition work produces harmful fibres that can cause serious health problems if ingested.
We are trained and equipped to collect samples before taking them away to be studied – this is done in a controlled environment to minimise any risk to our workers and anyone in the near vicinity. Once we have analysed the samples at our in-house laboratory, we will provide feedback. If asbestos is present, we can advise you of the best course of action to make your building safe again.
