Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex: Your Go-To Asbestos Testing Company in Sussex

Are you worried about the presence of asbestos in your home or workplace? Asbestos is a hazardous material that can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. If you suspect that your property contains asbestos, it is important to have it tested by a professional asbestos testing company.

At Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex, we specialize in providing affordable asbestos testing services to clients across Sussex and the South East of England. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, we have the knowledge and expertise to identify and test for asbestos in all types of properties.

What is Asbestos?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring fibrous mineral that was commonly used in construction materials such as insulation, roofing, and flooring. It was favored by builders for its fire-resistant properties and durability. However, prolonged exposure to asbestos fibers has been linked to several serious health conditions.

Even though the use of asbestos in construction materials was banned in the UK in 1999, many older buildings still contain asbestos. If your property was constructed before this date, there is a chance that it could contain asbestos.

Why is Asbestos Testing Important?

Asbestos fibers are too small to be seen with the naked eye, which means that it is impossible to determine whether a material contains asbestos without testing it in a laboratory. Asbestos testing is important because it enables property owners to identify the presence of asbestos and take the necessary steps to remove it.

If you plan to undertake any renovation work or repairs on your property, it is especially important to have it tested for asbestos first. Disturbing asbestos-containing materials can release fibers into the air, which can be inhaled and cause serious health problems.

Types of Asbestos Testing

At Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex, we offer two types of asbestos testing: air testing and sample testing.

Air Testing

Air testing is used to determine the concentration of asbestos fibers in the air. This test is conducted using a device called an air pump, which draws air through a filter. The filter is then examined under a microscope to determine whether it contains asbestos fibers.

Air testing is recommended if your property has been damaged due to flooding, fire, or other incidents that may have disturbed asbestos-containing materials.

Sample Testing

Sample testing involves taking a physical sample of a material and sending it to a laboratory for analysis. Samples can be taken from a variety of materials including insulation, roofing, and flooring.

Sample testing is recommended if you are planning to undertake renovation work or repairs on your property, or if you suspect that a material contains asbestos.

How Much Does Asbestos Testing Cost?

The cost of asbestos testing depends on several factors, including the type of testing required and the size of the property. At Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex, we offer competitive pricing on all of our asbestos testing services.

Air testing starts from just 99 per test, while sample testing starts from 49 per sample. We also offer discounted rates for multiple samples and properties.
