Asbestos is a hazardous material that can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. If you're planning to renovate or demolish a property in Caerphilly, it's crucial to test for asbestos to avoid disturbing the fibers and releasing them into the air.

To send a sample for asbestos testing, you'll need to follow these steps:

1. Take a Sample: Use a sealable plastic bag or a sampling container to collect a small sample of the suspected asbestos material. Make sure to wear protective clothing, including gloves and a mask, to avoid exposure.
2. Complete a Sample Form: Fill out a sample form, which should include information about the sample, such as its location, type of material, and any relevant history.
3. Send the Sample to a Laboratory: Send the sample to a UKAS-accredited laboratory, such as the one used by Helix Environmental Ltd. We use a laboratory that is certified to analyze asbestos samples, ensuring accurate and reliable results.

During asbestos testing, the sample is analyzed using a combination of techniques, including:

1. Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM): This method uses a microscope to identify the presence of asbestos fibers.
2. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM): This method uses a high-powered microscope to analyze the sample and identify the type of asbestos present.
