Asbestos Testing in Churchfields

Are you based in Churchfields, Wiltshire or surrounding areas in South West England, and are concerned about asbestos in your building? Look no further than Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire, a trusted asbestos testing company in Churchfields.

What is asbestos and why is it a concern?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was widely used in construction materials in the UK until the late 1990s. It was commonly used in buildings for its insulating and fire-resistant properties. However, asbestos poses serious health risks to humans when it is damaged or disturbed, causing the release of microscopic fibres that can be inhaled into the lungs.

Exposure to asbestos can cause a range of serious and life-threatening diseases, such as mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. These diseases often do not present symptoms until many years after exposure, making early detection and removal of asbestos essential to protect the health of building occupants.

What does the asbestos testing process involve?

The asbestos testing process involves several steps to determine whether a material contains asbestos fibres. Our team will first conduct a visual assessment of the material to determine its condition and likelihood of containing asbestos. We will then take samples of the material using specialized equipment to prevent the release of asbestos fibres.

The samples will then be sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis using polarized light microscopy (PLM) or transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Our team will typically receive the results within 24-48 hours, and we will provide you with a detailed report on the presence, location, and condition of any asbestos found.

What should you do if asbestos is found in your building?

If asbestos is found in your building, it is important not to disturb or attempt to remove it yourself. Asbestos removal should only be carried out by licensed and trained professionals to minimize the risk of releasing asbestos fibres into the air.

Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire also offers asbestos removal services, and we will work with you to develop a safe and effective plan to remove any asbestos found.
