Asbestos Analytical Services

Background Monitoring
This is used to check that airborne fibre levels are below the recommended limit of quantification prior to works commence, typically during minor remedial works.

Leak (enclosure check) Monitoring
While asbestos removal works are in progress, air samples are measured outside the working enclosure to assess the enclosure integrity and effectiveness of control measures.

Personal compliance Monitoring
This air test is used to monitor exposure and to confirm that the RPE in use is capable of providing the appropriate degree of protection. It is also used to check the effectiveness of control measures in place during work with asbestos.

Clearance air monitoring
Carried out as stage 3: (Air monitoring) of the certificate of reoccupation process, upon satisfactory completion of stage 1: (Preliminary check of site condition and job completeness) & Stage 2: (A thorough visual inspection inside the enclosure/work area), and prior to stage 4

Reassurance Monitoring
This test may be conducted in certain circumstances – for example when an enclosure has been removed on completion of asbestos remedial works.

Asbestos Material Sampling and Testing
We undertake the removal of composite samples and arrange testing at an independent UKAS accredited laboratory. This enables impartial testing and an appropriate plan of action to be developed to ensure effective management or removal and transportation of hazardous waste.
