Affordable Asbestos Removal Cardiff

Asbestos surveys are a crucial step in identifying and managing the risks associated with asbestos in properties throughout Caerphilly. At Helix Environmental Ltd, trading as Affordable Asbestos Removal Cardiff, we specialize in providing comprehensive asbestos surveys to help property owners and managers ensure a safe and compliant environment.

Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals that were widely used in construction materials due to their durability, fire-resistance, and insulation properties. However, asbestos has been linked to serious health risks, including lung cancer and mesothelioma, making it essential to identify and manage its presence in properties.

An asbestos survey is a thorough inspection of a property to identify the presence, type, and condition of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). The survey is conducted by a trained and experienced surveyor who will assess the risk posed by the ACMs and provide recommendations for their management or removal.

During an asbestos survey, our surveyor will:

1. Inspect the property, including all areas, such as attics, basements, and behind walls.
2. Identify and sample materials suspected of containing asbestos.
3. Analyze the samples to determine the presence and type of asbestos.
4. Assess the condition and risk posed by the ACMs.
5. Provide a detailed report outlining the findings, recommendations, and management plan.

Our surveyor will inspect a wide range of materials that may contain asbestos, including:

1. Insulation materials, such as lagging and sprayed coatings.
2. Ceiling tiles and Artex ceilings.
3. Flooring materials, such as vinyl tiles and linoleum.
4. Wall and ceiling boards.
5. Roofing materials, such as corrugated sheets and roofing felts.

If asbestos is found during the survey, our surveyor will assess the risk posed by the ACMs and provide recommendations for their management or removal. This may include:

1. Encapsulation or sealing of the ACMs to prevent fiber release.
2. Removal of the ACMs by a licensed asbestos removal contractor.
3. Development of an asbestos management plan to ensure ongoing safety and compliance.
