Testing for asbestos involves collecting a small sample of suspected asbestos material and testing it in a laboratory. It’s highly recommended that you use a professional asbestos testing service in Liverpool, rather than using a DIY kit, to ensure the safest testing and reduce any harm or health risks to yourself.
You can’t identify asbestos material just by looking at it. So if you suspect asbestos or are concerned at all, it’s safest to arrange a test.
We’ll arrange a site visit, conduct a comprehensive asbestos survey, and safely take a sample of any suspected material, which will be sent for analysis in an accredited facility.
Once we have the results, we’ll let you know if asbestos has been confirmed, what type of asbestos it is, what condition it’s in and what the next steps will be for safe removal.
Due to Liverpool’s historical industry and rebuilding post WWII, many older homes are likely to contain asbestos. This includes any homes built or refurbished pre 1999, when asbestos use was officially banned.
Some reports have suggested more than 120 public buildings in Liverpool contain asbestos along with hundreds, or thousands of homes.
Testing for asbestos matters because, while it may not carry immediate harm to your health, damage or disturbance can release asbestos fibres into the air, which can cause long-term health risks.
Our Liverpool asbestos testing identifies any asbestos present in your property or commercial building and can tell you whether any further action is needed to remove it or manage it safely.
This is essential to your responsibilities under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.
We can cover most property types across domestic, commercial and industrial and can test for a wide range of asbestos types, ensuring you get reliable, accurate results. We can carry out tests on roofing panels and sheets, insulation, floor tiles, textured coatings and ceiling tiles and wall boards.
During our testing, we do everything we can to minimise any disruption or disturbance and will give you all the information you need to protect any occupants while we work. All testing is carried out safely, using controlled methods.
