Asbestos Surveys

Asbestos surveys are important for several reasons. First, they ensure that you are aware of any asbestos-containing materials in your home or property. This knowledge is essential for protecting the health and safety of occupants and workers. Second, an asbestos survey can help you to comply with legal obligations, including the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Refurbishment/Demolition

If you are planning to refurbish or demolish a building, it is essential to have a refurbishment/demolition survey carried out beforehand. This survey will identify any asbestos-containing materials in the building that could be disturbed during the refurbishment or demolition process.

By identifying and safely removing any asbestos-containing materials before the refurbishment or demolition begins, you can protect the health and safety of the workers on the site, as well as anyone else who could potentially be exposed to the asbestos fibers.

Type

There are several different types of asbestos-containing materials that can be found in buildings. These include:

• Asbestos cement
• Asbestos insulating board
• Sprayed asbestos
• Loose-fill asbestos
• Textured decorative coatings (such as Artex)

Each of these materials requires different handling and removal procedures, which is why it is essential to have a professional asbestos survey carried out before any work is undertaken on the property.

Chalvington

Chalvington is a small village located in East Sussex in South East England, England. The village has a rich history, dating back to the 11th century. Today, Chalvington is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, thanks to its stunning countryside and charming village atmosphere.

However, like many villages in the UK, Chalvington is home to many older buildings that may contain asbestos-containing materials. That's why it is essential to have a professional asbestos survey carried out if you are planning any work on your property.
