What Is An R&D Asbestos Survey In Hampshire?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that has been linked to a number of serious health conditions, including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. This means that it's essential to manage and dispose of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) safely and correctly to protect workers, residents and the public. And, this is where an R&D asbestos survey comes into the picture, especially in the Hampshire region.

Understanding Asbestos

Asbestos was widely used in building materials up until the 1980s, and it's still present in many older buildings today. The danger of asbestos comes from inhaling the tiny fibers that can be released when ACMs are disturbed or damaged. The fibers are so small that you can't see them, and they can remain in the air for hours, making them extremely hazardous.

Asbestos is commonly found in the following building materials:

• Roofing
• Insulation
• Ceiling tiles
• Floor tiles
• Cement pipes
• Electrical insulation
• Textured coatings

Why Do You Need An Asbestos Survey?

Before any building or demolition work can commence, a proper asbestos survey needs to be conducted. This is to identify any asbestos-containing materials that may be present in the building that could pose a hazard to those working or living in the building.

An asbestos survey helps to:

• Identify the type of asbestos material present
• Determine the extent of asbestos
• Assess the condition of the asbestos
• Provide recommendations on managing or removing asbestos

There are two types of asbestos surveys that Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire offers in Hampshire Management Asbestos Surveys and Refurbishment/Demolition Asbestos Surveys.

Management Asbestos Survey

This is a standard asbestos survey commonly carried out for managing asbestos-containing materials that may be present in a building. The survey is non-intrusive, and it's the duty of the building owner or property manager to ensure that the survey is conducted periodically to monitor the condition of the asbestos-containing materials.

Refurbishment/Demolition Asbestos Survey

This is an intrusive asbestos survey that is usually carried out before a building undergoes refurbishment or demolition. The survey aims to locate all asbestos-containing materials in the building and make recommendations on the proper management or removal of the ACMs.

Asbestos Management

If asbestos containing materials have been found in a building during a management survey, Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire provides comprehensive recommendations on how to manage them safely. Our asbestos professionals will provide practical advice on how to prevent the release of fibers and asbestos dust from the ACM. Our experts will advise on how to maintain and regularly monitor the asbestos-containing material to confirm that it remains in good condition.

Asbestos Refurbishment/Demolition

If asbestos-containing materials are found during a refurbishment or demolition survey, Affordable Asbestos Removal Hampshire provides recommendations on how to manage and remove the ACM safely. Our asbestos experts will create an asbestos management plan to detail how our team of asbestos professionals will manage and safely dispose of the ACM from the building site.
