Knowing where asbestos is (and isn’t) is the crucial first step to managing it safely. Our thorough asbestos surveys give you the vital information needed to assess risk and comply with the law.
- Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: An essential check before buying a property, helping you identify potential hidden asbestos costs and safety risks.
- Asbestos Management Surveys: A legal requirement for all non-domestic properties. We pinpoint any ACMs, check their condition, and create a report and register to help you manage them safely.
- Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: A legally mandated, intrusive survey that you must complete before any construction, refurbishment, or demolition work begins on your property.
- Re-inspections: We can carry out scheduled re-inspections to monitor the condition of asbestos you've already identified, making sure your management plan remains up to date.
If you've found a material you suspect might contain asbestos, it's vital not to disturb it. Our team can safely take a sample from your Reading property and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. You'll receive a definitive result and certificate, confirming whether asbestos is present. We regularly test materials like:
- Textured coatings (often known as Artex) on ceilings and walls.
- Asbestos cement, frequently found in garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, and gutters.
- Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper.
- Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB).
- Pipe insulation and old boiler flues.
