What is asbestos and why do I need asbestos removal in Bookham?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was once highly valued for its versatility and recognised for its heat resistance, tensile strength and insulating properties. It was once used for everything from cement and roof tiles in home garages, through to commercial construction projects. It can be difficult to identify because it is commonly mixed with other materials, such as cement. When materials containing asbestos are disturbed, they can become dangerous because the fibres are released onto the air and can be breathed in. When inhaled they can cause serious diseases, including cancer.

Asbestos is predominantly found in three different forms:

• Crocidolite: Also known as blue asbestos, this is considered the most dangerous type of commercially-used asbestos and is often found in spray coatings.
• Amosite: Sometimes referred to as brown asbestos, this type of asbestos was widely used for producing insulation boards along with pipes, slabs and moulded pipe covers. This is also considered one of the most dangerous types of asbestos owing to the harsh, straight fibres.
• Chrysotile: Commonly used in the construction industry, this type of asbestos is called white asbestos and is often mixed with other materials. This type of asbestos was allowed in the UK from 1985 until 1999, when all types of asbestos were finally banned.

Our fully licensed asbestos contractors (licensed to undertake Type 2 work) can encapsulate, remove or collect all types of asbestos can dispose of them quickly and efficiently. Every job is meticulously planned and after any work, you will be issued with a hazardous waste consignment certificate from The Environment Agency, confirming that all asbestos has been removed responsibly.

Fetcham Asbestos surveys, asbestos sampling and local testing

We offer a series of asbestos sampling and testing and surveys to identify the presence, extent and type of asbestos in any building. If you require small-scale asbestos testing, we can take samples and send them off to an accredited laboratory for testing.

We also offer Asbestos Management Surveys, which will provide a report of how best to manage any asbestos containing materials (ACMs) within a building, including a risk assessment and any recommendations, which are then placed onto the asbestos register.
