A couple of mates are asbestos surveyors for a living for a national company called Interserve - they then work for various housing associations etc around the country. | |

quote: They will not touch it I will find you a name of a company that does it nationally off our database when I am in work tomorrow. Have a survey done as in most cases as long as its not blue asbestos they will just as you to put labels in the areas affected for example if it was Chrisotile so that tradesmen will be aware an area is affected before they start drilling holes etc. However if you need to dispose of it this is deffo a job for an aproved contractor. Had a bit of a scare when a site i was doing a specification of works shows contamination from blue asbestos luckily the lab results from sampling showed it was in just one isolatied area. | |

Council will not touch asbestos they point you in the direction of an asbestos surveying company or removal company. I work for ARCA the Asbestos Trade Association - log onto www.arca.org.uk and find members in the area you live and give them a call if you require a piece testing log onto www.atac.org.uk and contact companies from ur area. | |

Your council will more than likely come and inspect it for free... | |

I think it is subsidised compared to an independent asbestos inspector isnt it? Or free up to a point whereby you get charged etc.....like we said have a gander | |

Check with you local authority, they usual have a department who will come and investigate suspected asbestos, although there is usually a fee involved | |

Has anyone had any experience in getting plaster/paint samples off their wall tested for asbestos? |
