The Number One Choice for Asbestos Surveys in Stoke

Asbestos was used widely in construction due to its fire-resistant and insulating properties. It was routinely used in materials from roofing to insulation, floor tiles, and cement. Exposure to asbestos fibres causes serious health issues, so restrictions started to come into effect in the late 20th century, culminating in a complete ban in 1999.

Many properties today still contain asbestos, as they were built before 2000. If this applies to your property in Stoke, asbestos management might be required. Enter UKSM, a team that’s fully licensed and equipped to handle PAT Testing Stoke, from surveying to sampling, removal, and encapsulation.

From Asbestos Refurbishment Surveys to Asbestos Testing: We Do it All!

Asbestos surveys are critical assessments designed to identify and manage asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) within buildings and structures. Such asbestos surveys are legally required for commercial buildings under UK law as per the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

While not legally required of residential property owners, they are highly advised owing to the severe health risks associated with asbestos exposure.

Here at UKSM, we offer two primary types of asbestos surveys:

Management Surveys: These asbestos surveys are essential for non-domestic premises like workplaces and public buildings. The purpose of these asbestos surveys is to locate and assess the condition of asbestos-containing materials that could be disturbed during normal occupation and use of the property. They are intended to ensure these materials remain in a safe state.
Refurbishment and Demolition Surveys: As demolition and refurbishment work have a higher potential of releasing asbestos fibres, these asbestos surveys are far more detailed. As they are destructive, they are not suitable for occupied properties. Our asbestos surveyors will actively seek out ACMs, ensuring their safe removal before any work begins to protect occupants and workers.

Legally, conducting asbestos surveys to comply with health and safety regulations is crucial. Failure to do so can result in serious legal consequences and, more importantly, put people’s lives at risk due to potential asbestos exposure.

Here at UKSM, our team members are experts in asbestos surveys. We’re highly experienced, fully accredited and licensed, so you can trust us to root out asbestos and ensure its safe removal or encapsulation.

We use state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to identify and assess ACMs, providing you with a detailed report outlining their location, condition, and recommended management or removal measures.

By choosing us, you meet legal requirements and ensure the safety of your occupants and workers.

Asbestos Sampling, Removal, and Encapsulation

Asbestos sampling, removal, and encapsulation are crucial processes in managing and mitigating the risks associated with ACMs within buildings. Each of these methods plays a specific role in ensuring the safety of occupants and workers.

Asbestos Sampling

Following on from asbestos surveys, this is the next step in determining whether ACMs are present and their condition. Our highly trained Stoke asbestos professionals take samples of suspected materials and send them to accredited laboratories for analysis. This process helps identify the type and extent of asbestos in your property, forming the basis for informed decision-making.

Asbestos Removal

The next of our asbestos services, asbestos removal, is a meticulous and highly regulated process. When ACMs are damaged, deteriorating, or pose a risk due to renovation or demolition, they must be safely removed by trained specialists.

Stringent safety protocols and protective measures are employed to prevent the release of asbestos fibres into the environment, ensuring the health and well-being of all involved.

Asbestos Encapsulation

Sometimes, following asbestos surveys, it may be determined that removal isn’t necessary, though measures should still be taken.

Encapsulation is an alternative approach to removal, where the ACMs are sealed or encapsulated to prevent the release of fibres. This method can be suitable for materials that are in good condition and not at risk of damage. It provides a cost-effective solution while maintaining safety.

At UK Safety Management, we excel in asbestos sampling, removal, and encapsulation services. Our team of experts is well-versed in the latest techniques and safety measures, ensuring that asbestos-related risks are effectively managed in your premises.

By choosing us, you’re opting for a comprehensive solution to safeguard your environment and comply with legal requirements, backed by our 15 years of trust and accreditation. Your safety is our utmost concern, so book one of our asbestos surveys today to get started, and if asbestos is present, we’ll get it tested and recommend the most appropriate solution.
