An asbestos survey is a thorough inspection of your building to determine whether there are any materials that contain asbestos. It involves taking samples of suspected materials, analyzing them in a laboratory, and producing a report detailing the findings. The survey is non-intrusive, meaning that it does not damage the building, and can be carried out by qualified asbestos surveyors.

At Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire, we offer two types of asbestos surveys:

• Management Survey: This survey is designed to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, the presence and extent of any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in a building which could be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy, including foreseeable maintenance and installation, and to assess their condition.
• Refurbishment and Demolition Survey: This survey is required when the building is to be refurbished, renovated or demolished, and will involve destructive inspection methods to ascertain the presence of any ACMs.

We can also provide advice on the management of any ACMs found, including asbestos removal if necessary.

Asbestos testing involves analyzing samples of suspected materials to determine whether they contain asbestos or not. It is usually done when a specific material needs to be checked, rather than a whole building. We offer laboratory testing services for various types of materials, including insulation, textured coatings, floor tiles, cement products, and others.
