Asbestos - The Plain Truth

Asbestos was used in over 3000 different building materials - Each year about 3000 people die from asbestos related diseases. The revised Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006 now requires all non-domestic buildings to be surveyed by competent persons. Tradesmen and Maintenance Staff etc are still being exposed to asbestos because they don't know its there, asbestos surveys will help to reduce this exposure by informing you and them beforehand.

It is important to note that there is usually no need to remove asbestos simply because 'it's there' or as a result of asbestos survey findings. Asbestos materials should only be removed when, it is too damaged to repair, it is regularly damaged by normal use of the building or it is likely to be disturbed by planned refurbishment/maintenance or demolition.

Sealed asbestos materials are quite safe and should always be left alone where possible.

ASBESTOS ANXIETY

Asbestos is an emotive subject that needs to be dealt with in an honest, discrete and professional manner by experts.

Experts who have a significant knowledge of its many (3000+) uses, its varying risks and the legal requirements of the various regulations to ensure safe working or living with the material. Asbestos management needs to be 'future proof' against exposure, claims, prosecution and increased insurance costs etc.

Exposure to asbestos fibres, in some cases, can cause cancer and other health problems, this is why the regulations are so strict and the penalties for failure are so severe, we are here to help you prevent that happening, to you, your colleagues, your employees, your contractors or members of the public.

Having said that, the reality is, that in most cases, the easiest solution is being armed with the right information about the asbestos materials in your property as specified in the MDHS100 (download below) this will enable you to easily manage the risks and comply with the law at the same time.
