Why do I need to know about asbestos in my property?
- The UK Health & Safety Executive say that Asbestos is the single biggest occupational killer in the UK.
- If your building was constructed before 1999 it could contain asbestos.
- Asbestos is a hidden material, you have to do more than just look at it to know if it asbestos.
- The chances are that you’re living or working with Asbestos and will not know it.
- Our surveys identify positively if there is asbestos in your building and if there is, we’ll tell you what your options are for dealing with it. This could be to safely remove it or safely contain it knowing it won’t be disturbed.
Anything else I should know about Asbestos?
- The HSE made it a legal requirement under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 to have an up to date asbestos management plan in place if you are the person responsible for:
- maintaining a non-domestic property
- maintaining the communal areas in a multiple-occupancy domestic property
- If you are you are a domestic householder, you want peace of mind knowing that your family is not exposed to this potential killer material.
