Why Asbestos Testing is Crucial for Your Devon Property
As a homeowner in Devon, it's natural to want to ensure your property is safe and secure for you and your loved ones. One often-overlooked aspect of property maintenance is asbestos testing. Asbestos is a hazardous material that was commonly used in building construction until the late 1990s. If your property was built before this time, there's a risk that asbestos may be present. At 1st Choice Asbestos, we understand the importance of asbestos testing and are here to guide you through the process.
What is Asbestos and Why is it a Problem?
Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals that were widely used in building materials due to their fire-resistant and insulating properties. However, when asbestos is disturbed or damaged, it releases tiny fibres that can be inhaled, causing serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. If you suspect that your property may contain asbestos, it's essential to have it tested and removed by a qualified professional.
How to Get Your House Tested for Asbestos in Devon
At 1st Choice Asbestos, we offer a comprehensive asbestos testing service for properties in Devon.

If asbestos is detected, we will provide you with a detailed report outlining the location and extent of the asbestos, as well as recommendations for removal and disposal.
What Happens During an Asbestos Survey?
An asbestos survey is a thorough inspection of your property to identify and assess the presence of asbestos-containing materials. Our team will examine all areas of your property, including attics, basements, and exterior walls.
