Your home may contain asbestos if it was built or refurbished before the year 2000.

When asbestos is in good condition and not disturbed or damaged, it is not a danger.  Once disturbed, for examples carrying out. improvements or DIY works in your home, asbestos fibres may become airborne and a possible risk to health.

Asbestos Surveys

We carry out asbestos surveys ahead of any refurbishment works e.g. a new kitchen, new roof, and also intrusive repairs such as replacing a floor covering, to keep customers and our colleagues safe.

There is no legal obligation to survey all our properties unless carrying out significant work, but we endeavour to survey 100% as quickly as we can.  We have surveyed 100% of our communal buildings and where asbestos is present we inspect these on an annual basis to make sure they remain safe.

Our survey/testing contractors are part of UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) to standards ISO 17020 and 17025

Asbestos removal contractors have been awarded a license from the HSE to remove asbestos and are members of ARCA (Asbestos Removal Contractors Association)

What can you do to help us keep you safe from the harm caused by Asbestos?
