Asbestos Encapsulation

If the identified ACMs are not in a deteriorated state, we may recommend encapsulation rather than removal. This process involves enclosing the asbestos materials with an encapsulating agent, preventing any damage or exposure to the environment. This approach can save you money and time, and our team of experts will ensure that the encapsulation process is done correctly and meets all relevant standards.

Asbestos Testing

If you suspect that a particular material may contain asbestos, we can provide you with our asbestos testing service. Our lab technicians will take a sample of the material and analyze it to determine its asbestos content. If the presence of asbestos is confirmed, we can guide you through the correct process to ensure your property is safe.

The Danger Of Asbestos

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was commonly used in the construction industry due to its many desirable properties. However, prolonged exposure to asbestos can cause mesothelioma (a rare form of cancer that attacks the lining of the lungs), lung cancer, and asbestosis (a type of lung scarring). The symptoms of asbestos-related illnesses may take years or even decades to become apparent, so it is essential to take preventative measures such as asbestos removal if there is a risk of exposure.

There are many forms of asbestos-containing materials found in homes and buildings in Rodden, Dorset. These include roofing materials, insulation materials, wallboards, floor tiles, and cement products. In homes built prior to 2000, asbestos may also be present in textured wall and ceiling coatings, such as popcorn ceilings.
