Asbestos Surveying
Surveying
Many properties all across the country have asbestos in the roofing, tiling and insulation. Because it was such a common construction material in the 1930s and had widespread use before the dangers were identified, it is still prevalent today. Asbestos does not pose a risk and is not a danger when it is in good condition. It is only hazardous if it becomes damaged or deteriorates. This is because harmful fibres are released into the environment which can cause lung cancer fatal respiratory diseases.
Because asbestos is only a danger when damaged, any property with asbestos must be assessed and surveyed. Asbestos surveying is used to identify the presence, quantity and risks of asbestos in a building. If you are considering asbestos removal, then an asbestos survey is mandatory and must be completed by asbestos surveying companies.
A professional surveyor will be able to accurately assess the situation. They can then determine if the asbestos requires removal or is safe to stay.
