Asbestos does not pose a risk if it remains in good condition and is not disturbed. If you think any material containing asbestos is present or may have been damaged:
- Leave it alone: it is safe and can be left in-situ, unless it is disturbed or damaged.
- Seek professional advice: contact us and we will arrange for the appropriate person to determine whether the material contains asbestos and how to deal with it safely. Sometimes, it will be necessary to take a sample of the material to identify the type of asbestos it contains, if we do not already possess this information.
- Please be aware: only suitably trained and qualified persons are permitted to take samples or undertake an asbestos survey in your home.
- Do not attempt to remove any form of asbestos (suspected or otherwise) yourself.
