What Happens During an Asbestos Test
When we arrive at your home, our trained technicians will conduct a thorough survey to identify any materials that may contain asbestos. This includes inspecting your roof, walls, ceilings, and floors for any signs of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). We'll also ask you questions about your home's history, including when it was built and any previous renovations or repairs.
Taking Asbestos Samples
If we suspect that a material may contain asbestos, we'll take a sample for further analysis. This involves carefully removing a small piece of the material, which is then sealed in a special bag to prevent any potential asbestos fibres from escaping. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for testing, where it's examined under a microscope to determine if it contains asbestos.
Asbestos Testing and Analysis
The laboratory analysis will determine if the sample contains asbestos and, if so, what type of asbestos it is. The results will also indicate the percentage of asbestos present in the material. This information is crucial in determining the best course of action for removing or managing the asbestos.
What Happens After the Asbestos Test
Once we receive the test results, we'll discuss the findings with you and recommend the best course of action. If asbestos is present, we'll provide you with a detailed plan for its safe removal or management. Our team will work with you to ensure that the process is carried out with minimal disruption to your home and daily life.
