What is asbestos and why is it dangerous?

Asbestos is a group of six fibrous minerals used in construction for their strength and insulation. It becomes hazardous when fibres are inhaled, potentially causing lung diseases like asbestosis and mesothelioma.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Properties built before 2000 may contain asbestos. The only way to confirm is through a professional asbestos survey and lab testing.

Do I always need to remove asbestos?

Not always. If asbestos is in good condition and not likely to be disturbed, it can be managed in situ. A survey will guide the best action.

What types of surveys do you offer?

We offer management surveys, refurbishment & demolition surveys, and targeted sampling, all in line with HSE guidance (HSG264).

How quickly can you provide a quote?

After an initial consultation or site visit, we usually issue a fixed quote within 48 hours for most projects.

Are you fully licensed and insured?

Yes. We hold a HSE Asbestos Licence, are registered with the Environment Agency, and have £10m public and employers’ liability insurance.

How long does asbestos removal take?

Small domestic jobs may take a day; larger or industrial projects may take several days to weeks depending on scope.

Will I need to vacate my property during removal?

This depends on the location and scale of asbestos. We will advise based on the property layout and project scope.

What happens to asbestos waste?

Asbestos waste is double-bagged or wrapped and labelled, transported to a transfer station, and then disposed of at a licensed landfill. You receive an Environment Agency consignment note.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency response for disturbed asbestos to make the area safe and begin removal.

Can you train my staff in asbestos awareness?

We deliver UKATA and IATP approved asbestos awareness training and task-specific non-licensed courses.
