Asbestos is one of the most common hazardous materials found in buildings so you need to have an asbestos survey in Weston-super-Mare.

They need to know the state of the asbestos in the building and whether it is safe to complete the project. If there is asbestos in the air it needs to be removed before any building work commences.

As the owner of manager of the commercial or residential structure it is your legal obligation to ensure that all asbestos on the property is safe.
All buildings that were built before 1999 will have asbestos in them in some form or other. In Weston-super-Mare, asbestos surveys are carried out by our experts. They know where to look and how to test for the presence of asbestos in the air. This is the major problem with this possible lethal material. If it is damaged or disturbed it tends to release fibres into the air and these fibres are breathed in by anyone in the vicinity. Once in the lungs the very sharp pointed little fibres penetrate the lining of the lung. These can never be removed and cause lung disease.
