Before any work or purchase, understanding if asbestos is present and what state it's in is absolutely vital. Our professional asbestos surveys give you the clear information you need to manage any risks, stay safe, and comply with the law.

• Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: Buying a new home? Don't get caught out by hidden asbestos costs or health risks. Our survey gives you a detailed picture before you commit, identifying any potential issues early on.
• Asbestos Management Surveys: If you own or manage a non-domestic property, this is a legal must-have. We'll meticulously locate any Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs), assess their condition, and give you a clear report and register to help you manage them safely, meeting your duties under CAR 2012.
• Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: Planning any building work, big or small? You legally need an intrusive survey done before you even start. This makes sure all asbestos is found and dealt with safely, preventing exposure during your project.
• Regular Re-inspections: Asbestos that's being managed needs regular checks. We can carry out scheduled re-inspections to monitor the condition of identified asbestos, making sure your management plan remains effective and up-to-date.
• Asbestos Material Testing: If you've come across a material you think might be asbestos, the most important thing is not to disturb it. That's where we step in. Our trained team can safely take a sample, making sure no fibres are released. We then send this to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for expert analysis, giving you a definitive answer and a formal certificate. We regularly test materials like:
• Textured coatings, often called Artex, on ceilings and walls.
• Asbestos cement, commonly found in garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, and gutters.
• Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper.
• Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB) panels.
• Old pipe insulation and boiler flues.

At its heart, Southern Asbestos is all about safely removing non-licensed asbestos from properties of every kind. Our highly trained team follows rigorous, proven procedures. We carefully contain the work area, remove the asbestos-containing materials, and then thoroughly clean the space, leaving your property completely safe and clear.
