Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex - Your Answer to Asbestos Testing in Sussex

Asbestos is a mineral that was commonly used in building materials during the 20th century, due to its excellent fire-retardant properties, low cost, and impressive durability. Unfortunately, asbestos also caused a myriad of health issues, including mesothelioma, asbestosis, and lung cancer.

Asbestos was banned in the UK in 1999 due to these health concerns, but many properties constructed before then may still contain the mineral. This is where asbestos testing comes in - if you suspect that your property might have asbestos, you should hire a professional to perform an asbestos survey on your property.

What is an Asbestos Survey?

An asbestos survey is a thorough examination of your property to determine whether there are any materials containing asbestos. During the survey, an expert will take samples of any suspect material, and have them analysed in a laboratory. There are two types of survey - management surveys and refurbishment/demolition surveys.

Management Surveys

Management surveys are typically carried out on occupied commercial properties to identify any asbestos-containing materials that may be present. Management surveys are conducted in order to identify asbestos-containing materials that could be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy, and to ensure that appropriate measures are taken to manage the risks associated with them.

Refurbishment/Demolition Surveys

Refurbishment/demolition surveys are carried out prior to any refurbishment or demolition work being undertaken. The purpose of these surveys is to locate all asbestos-containing materials that will be disturbed during the work so that they can be safely removed prior to work starting.

The Importance of Asbestos Testing and Asbestos Surveys in Sussex

Asbestos is a dangerous mineral which can cause a host of health issues if it isn't discovered and removed quickly. The only way to be certain that asbestos is not present in your property is to have an asbestos survey conducted. This not only protects your health, but also your finances. For example, if you're planning on carrying out any refurbishment work on your property, you need to have a survey to identify any asbestos-containing materials before you start.

Asbestos surveying is a task that should only be carried out by experienced and qualified professionals. Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex is one such company that can help you with asbestos testing in Sussex.
