Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon

If you're a homeowner or business owner in Devon, it's essential to know how to identify and test for asbestos in your property. Asbestos is a hazardous material that can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. At 1st Choice Asbestos, we're committed to helping you create a safe environment by providing expert asbestos testing services.

Asbestos was widely used in construction materials until it was banned in the UK in 1999. However, many properties built before this date may still contain asbestos. Some common materials that can contain asbestos include:

• Roofing and ceiling tiles
• Insulation and lagging
• Textured coatings and artex
• Vinyl and asphalt floor tiles
• Cement and concrete products
  If you're unsure whether a material in your property contains asbestos, it's always best to err on the side of caution and have it tested.

If you suspect that a material in your property may contain asbestos, the first step is to contact a licensed asbestos removal company like 1st Choice Asbestos. We'll send a trained technician to collect a sample of the material, which will then be sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis.
The testing process typically involves:

• A visual inspection of the material to identify any potential asbestos-containing materials
• Collection of a sample of the material using a specialized sampling kit
• Packaging and transportation of the sample to the laboratory
• Analysis of the sample using techniques such as polarized light microscopy (PLM) or scanning electron microscopy (SEM)

Once the test results are received, our team will provide you with a detailed report outlining the findings. If the material is found to contain asbestos, we'll work with you to develop a plan for safe removal and disposal. Our team is fully trained and equipped to handle all aspects of asbestos removal, from sampling and testing to removal and disposal.
