Asbestos, Marvellous But Malevolent

Asbestos is not a synthetic compound as one might expect but is a mineral found naturally in metamorphic and igneous rocks.  Minerals are inorganic substances that occur naturally and have a solid form. Asbestos crystals are unique as they exist in a fibrous thin elongated form and during asbestos mining the rocks are crushed and then blown to release the fibres. Depending on the crystalline structure of the fibres the asbestos can be grouped either as "Serpentine” if they are in layered sheets or "Amphibole" if they are chain-like. 

Types of asbestos in the Serpentine group include chrysotile, tremolite, amosite, actinolite and crocidolite while anthophyllite belongs to the Amphibole group. Chrysotile, amosite and crocidolite are also known as white, brown and blue asbestos respectively and it is these forms that are predominantly used in industrial applications.   In the 1950s the use of asbestos in building materials became commonplace and it was frequently used in combination with other materials because of its distinctive and useful properties.

Most forms of asbestos are chemically inert (non-reactive) to other chemicals and can therefore protect against corrosion. Asbestos is also an excellent insulator as it has the ability to lock in heat and keep out cold. The fibres are also odourless and insoluble and will not evaporate in air. In addition asbestos is fire resistant and therefore the combination of all these properties makes it suitable for a range of applications commercially including building materials and textiles.  It was in the 1980s that the first ban in the use of asbestos was introduced due to health and safety concerns. Four main diseases are associated with exposure to and specifically the inhalation of asbestos fibres namely asbestosis, mesothelioma, lung cancer and non-malignant pleural disease.

Due to its widespread use in the building industry prior to the year 2000 there is numerous potential for exposure to this hazardous substance and stringent processes need to be followed for the removal of asbestos. Asbestos removal services need to comply with health and safety regulations to protect workers involved and also to ensure that the asbestos is appropriately contained once it has been removed. In the United Kingdom a leading Trade Association offers accreditation to contractors offering asbestos related services to ensure that the highest standards in asbestos services are maintained.  The association also offers various training courses pertaining to asbestos including how to safely remove and handle asbestos. 

Accredited contractors offer asbestos related services including removals, surveys and expert consultations. The emphasis when offering asbestos removal services for this wondrous but highly hazardous substance is ensuring the safety of all involved in the process from the clients to the contractors while limiting environmental impact.

Directors recognise the importance of its staff and encourage the reporting of any hazard or risk that may aversely affect health and safety performance.

ASBESTOS SURVEYS: Why using experts is best

The location and management of asbestos is assessed during the standard Asbestos Management Surveys while Demolition or Refurbishment Surveys are undertaken in areas where demolitions or major refurbishments will be taking place. In order for an asbestos removal project to comply with legal and safety requirements and to ensure that it is effectively removed from a contaminated area an asbestos survey should be undertaken by certified asbestos surveyors. Management surveys are usually minimally intrusive causing little disruption whereas conversely Demolition or Refurbishment Surveys are very disruptive and intrusive as all likely locations of asbestos need to be included.

Dealing with asbestos removal can be labour intensive, costly, messy and hazardous to one’s health hence it is best to have an appropriate survey conducted to ensure that a particular project is approached in the correct way. Experts in asbestos survey services are familiar with the likely locations of asbestos and can therefore save time and money. These asbestos surveying experts are qualified professionals who are well trained in assessing where the asbestos containing material is located, what type it is, how much is present and what condition it’s in. Detecting the presence of asbestos will require sample collection followed by the relevant laboratory testing. Once a laboratory has confirmed that asbestos is present decisions need to be made regarding the management of the asbestos as it may be safer to leave the materials if there is no airborne contamination.

When conducting asbestos surveys, experts will also consider the safe disposal of asbestos waste and debris including bagging and identification in addition to safe transport methods and locations for authorised disposal. Site preparation e.g. designated entry and exit points to the area as well as protective clothing requirements are all factors to consider when asbestos surveying is undertaken. A typical asbestos survey report will contained a detailed site description and floor plan, a summary of asbestos incidence, some recommendations and risk assessments in addition to providing a register of asbestos containing materials as supported by laboratory test results. Areas excluded from the survey as well as materials found not to contain asbestos are also usually indicated.

Following the identification of asbestos containing materials the next step is to determine whether the route of action would be to seal or contain the asbestos and leave it undisturbed or to have it removed. In the event that asbestos contamination is detected the area has to be sealed off for cleaning and removal by an accredited asbestos removal company and all relevant parties with access to the area need to be informed. Since asbestos is naturally occurring we can never entirely remove it from our environment but consulting asbestos surveying experts will allow us to co-exist with asbestos without the negative impact on our health.

Asbestos Services

The 20th Century saw the widespread use of asbestos due to its resistance to heat and its ability to insulate electricity. However, despite the suitability of asbestos in fire-retardant coatings, concrete, pipes as well as flooring, roofing and even lawn furniture, it was discovered in the late twentieth century that exposure to asbestos can cause, amongst other ailments, various forms of cancer such as lung cancer and Mesothelioma.

However, there are a large number of experienced businesses which can offer a wide range of asbestos services, such as asbestos surveys and asbestos removal. These firms offer a professional service for a wide range of customers, ranging from the public sector (such as hospitals), sector such as (engineering firms) and of course houses in the residential sector.

 There are two forms of asbestos surveys that such firms can carry out: Management Surveys are conducted in order to locate and manage asbestos materials. However, in an unoccupied area which is about to undergo demolition or refurbishment, it is important that a Destructive or Refurbishment Survey is conducted.

 If, following a survey, it is decided that the asbestos must be removed; such firms will conduct a rigorous planning strategy to ensure that the asbestos can be removed as safely as possible. The planning of such a venture is crucial to its success, ensuring that the general health and safety of all involved is protected as well as guaranteeing that the venture complies with all current regulations and laws.

 It is also important that during the disposal of asbestos, the environment, as well as the humans coming into contact with the substance, is also protected. In accordance with the environmental requirements, asbestos disposal firms implement several policies such as minimising the production of material and energy wastage, reducing pollution to air, water and land, and even training employees in environmental issues.

Asbestos Surveys 2

Asbestos is a highly dangerous material as it can cause health problems. When it is broken or damages, small fibres come loose and we breathe them in. These small fibres can easily embed themselves into our lungs and windpipe, causing scarring which leads to asbestosis and cancers. Because of these problems it is essential that Asbestos is removed by a proper authority, especially in non domestic places.

Asbestos surveys are carried out by officials in non domestic buildings, to ensure that there is no asbestos present, and if there is, that it is removed immediately in the proper manner. If you have something which you expect might contain asbestos, then you should definitely book an asbestos survey. The surveyors will be able to detect if any asbestos is present.

The asbestos surveyors will first carry out a Management Survey, to see if any asbestos can be found. If the results of the survey are positive, they will then perform a Demolition or Refurbishment Survey.

If you are in control of a non domestic building then you are required by law to follow the asbestos regulation code. This means it is your responsibility to determine whether there is any asbestos on your premises, and if you suspect that there might be, to estimate the amount of material, and its whereabouts. You must also assume that something contains asbestos, if you have a slight suspicion, unless you find evidence to prove that it does not contain any asbestos. It is also your responsibility to prevent the risk of anyone being affected by the asbestos fibres until a safe removal of the material has been carried out. You must keep your asbestos safety plan up to date and ensure that everyone entering the building is aware of it. If anyone is planning actions which might disturb the asbestos you ensure that these persons are aware of the location and condition of the asbestos.

Asbestos Removal

There are companies that specialize in the safe removal of Asbestos from buildings. Lots of buildings contain asbestos. It used to be used as a fire precaution and as insulation. Asbestos was sometimes put above ceilings and in many other small spaces that would be difficult to get to for firefighters. It was also often used in the construction of houses. However, it was soon found to be very dangerous. Breathing in fibers of asbestos can cause serious illnesses, including lung cancer, mesothelioma (which a cancer that was previously very rare), and lung disease. Being exposed to high amounts of asbestos fibers increases the likelihood of it causing health problems, because asbestos gets into the air at relatively low levels, which itself would not cause health problems unless it was exposure over a long period of time. The use of asbestos and extraction, manufacture and processing of asbestos products was banned by the U.S government and European Union in 1978.

Consequently, there are still many buildings containing highly dangerous asbestos insulation. Therefore an industry has grown around the removal of asbestos. Due to the potentially hazardous nature of the work, these private companies are required to be fully insured for our asbestos removal work and hold many licenses, certifications and accreditations. Because asbestos was so widely and diversely used, their contracts, and what they may encounter vary. As a result asbestos removal companies have to be able to manage contracts of any size, type or complexity. From royal palaces to sewage works. Sometimes if it is deemed too unsafe, they have to demolish parts of buildings, and demolition projects can include occupied tower blocks or single domestic dwellings. The asbestos has to be safely removed and disposed of. There are many asbestos removal companies available to contact online.

Asbestos Removal Continues to be A Problem

Despite the years of concern about asbestos in buildings, there is still a significant number of buildings in both the private and the public sector that still have asbestos within them. Today, the legislation regarding its removal means that only a small number of specifically approved companies are able to tackle this hazardous task.

One such company is Asbestos Abatement Services of Walsall. Gerard Maguire, the present Managing Director has been in the industry for more than 35 years, having previously spent time working for three of the largest companies managing a wide variety of projects working in UK, Europe and Far East. He is a former governing council member of the Asbestos Removal Contractors’ Association (ARCA) and still serves on the membership & audit committee; he also served on the CITB panel that formulated the NVQ syllabus for the industry.

The MD Gerard Maguire says “We instil in all our staff a proactive approach to Health and Safety. Consultation is a major part of our strategy to ensure a 1^st class Health & Safety Culture is created”

The Company has achieved external recognition of its work procedures and holds ISO9001, ISO14001 and OHSAS 18001 which cover management, environmental and Health and Safety procedures. The company have achieved the Gold Training Award from ARCA and have received the highest scores during training.

Jamie Purdon, Technical Officer says, “In addition to our head office in Walsall, we also have an office in Burbage near Hinckley. Our staff is equipped to work anywhere in the UK, they are experienced teams working under professional and extremely competent supervisors. They are fully trained, CSCS certified and are all CRB checked. I am responsible for asbestos surveys under HSE Guidance 264 which include management and demolition / refurbishment surveys. I also undertake and issue site specific method statements, risk and COSHH assessments for notifiable asbestos removal, Currently I am managing several contracts from residential housing to demolition projects.

For large projects, the Company employs a Certified waste contractor who will deliver a special asbestos removal skip which, when full will be taken to a hazardous waste transfer facility and then to the appropriate landfill site. For smaller projects the Company has its own compartmentalised vehicle, which is certified to be able to carry the asbestos waste to the processing site.

Jamie adds, “Some of these contracts require the use of some very innovative methods to achieve a safe and cost effective solution to some very difficult and emotive asbestos removal projects. This is particularly important when working in live areas, for example Asbestos Abatement Services is involved in the complete refurbishment of a large council building by another contractor. The building is full of asbestos and a great deal of work was necessary to ensure the complete safety of those working in the building while the asbestos was being removed.

Jamie finishes by saying that the Company makes a considerable investment in staff training, with operatives typically spending 12-16 days per year on different courses. “All of our asbestos specific training is done through ARCA and everyone is involved from board level through office and site staff. This is an essential aspect of our business.”

Asbestos Surveys

The duty to manage asbestos is contained in regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006. It requires the person who has the duty to: take reasonable steps to find out if there are materials containing asbestos in non-domestic premises, and if so, its amount, where it is and what condition it is in; presume materials contain asbestos unless there is strong evidence that they do not; make, and keep up-to-date, a record of the location and condition of the asbestos containing materials - or materials which are presumed to contain asbestos; assess the risk of anyone being exposed to fibres from the materials identified; prepare a plan that sets out in detail how the risks from these materials will be managed; take the necessary steps to put the plan into action; periodically review and monitor the plan and the arrangements to act on it so that the plan remains relevant and up-to-date; and provide information on the location and condition of the materials to anyone who is liable to work on or disturb them In order to comply with that duty to first step is to have a building surveyed for the presence of asbestos containing materials from which a management plan can be formulated. There are 2 types of survey that can be carried out Management Survey used to locate and manage asbestos materials Demolition or Refurbishment Survey a more intensive destructive asbestos survey, carried out in unoccupied areas before demolition or major refurbishment of part or all of a building/property It is vital that these asbestos surveys are carried out by highly experienced surveyors who have the knowledge of where asbestos would have been installed and are backed up with quality PI insurance.

Asbestos Surveys In The UK

Asbestos is actually a very hazardous material as it could cause health issues. If it is cracked or damaged, tiny fibres become loose and we can inhale them in. These kinds of tiny fibres can potentially embed directly into our lungs and windpipe, creating scars which causes asbestosis and cancers. As a result of these kinds of issues it is crucial that Asbestos is removed by the appropriate specialist, specifically in non domestic areas.

Asbestos surveys are performed by authorities in non domestic properties, in order that there's no asbestos present, and when there is, it is taken out right away in the appropriate manner. Should you have something which you believe may well possess asbestos, then you certainly will need to book an asbestos survey. The surveyors will have the ability to discover if some kind of asbestos exists.

The asbestos surveyors will initially perform a Management Survey, to see if any kind of asbestos can be found. In the event the final results from the survey are positive, they should then start a Demolition or Refurbishment Survey.

If you are accountable for a non domestic building then ylou are expected for legal reasons to go by the asbestos regulation code. This implies it is your duty to determine whether there's any asbestos on your own property, and when you suspect there could be, to calculate the amount of material, as well as its whereabouts. You need to also presume that something is made up of asbestos, should you have a little mistrust, until you find evidence to demonstrate that it doesn't possess any kind of asbestos. It's also your duty to stop the potential risk of anyone being affected by the asbestos fibres until a safe removal of the material has long been performed. You need to keep the asbestos safety plan updated and ensure that anybody entering your building is aware of it. If anybody is planning actions that may well disturb the asbestos you must make certain that these kinds of persons have an understanding of the location and state of the asbestos.

What Are Asbestos Surveys

Asbestos is a highly dangerous material as it can cause health problems. When it is broken or damages, small fibres come loose and we breathe them in. These small fibres can easily embed themselves into our lungs and windpipe, causing scarring which leads to asbestosis and cancers. Because of these problems it is essential that Asbestos is removed by a proper authority, especially in non domestic places.

Asbestos surveys are carried out by officials in non domestic buildings, to ensure that there is no asbestos present, and if there is, that it is removed immediately in the proper manner. If you have something which you expect might contain asbestos, then you should definitely book an asbestos survey. The surveyors will be able to detect if any asbestos is present.

The asbestos surveyors will first carry out a Management Survey, to see if any asbestos can be found. If the results of the survey are positive, they will then perform a Demolition or Refurbishment Survey.

If you are in control of a non domestic building then you are required by law to follow the asbestos regulation code. This means it is your responsibility to determine whether there is any asbestos on your premises, and if you suspect that there might be, to estimate the amount of material, and its whereabouts. You must also assume that something contains asbestos, if you have a slight suspicion, unless you find evidence to prove that it does not contain any asbestos. It is also your responsibility to prevent the risk of anyone being affected by the asbestos fibres until a safe removal of the material has been carried out. You must keep your asbestos safety plan up to date and ensure that everyone entering the building is aware of it. If anyone is planning actions which might disturb the asbestos you ensure that these persons are aware of the location and condition of the asbestos.
