Where might asbestos be found in a property in Northwich?
Asbestos was widely used in UK construction because of its insulating properties, durability and resistance to heat. Although its use was fully banned in 1999, many commercial and industrial buildings constructed or refurbished before 2000 may still contain asbestos containing materials.
In industrial areas such as Northwich, asbestos may be present in older factories, warehouses, plant rooms and commercial premises. It is not always possible to identify asbestos by appearance alone, so a suitable asbestos survey may be required before refurbishment, demolition or maintenance work begins.
Some examples of where asbestos containing materials may be found include -
Pipe and boiler insulation or lagging
Asbestos insulation board in walls, ceilings and partitions
Asbestos cement roofing sheets and cladding
Floor tiles and associated adhesives
Sprayed coatings and loose fill insulation
Fire doors, soffits and service ducts
This is not an exhaustive list. The Health and Safety Executive provides useful illustrations showing where asbestos may be present in different types of buildings.
If you suspect asbestos is present in your Northwich property, avoid disturbing the material until it has been properly assessed and BLS Asbestos Ltd will advise on the appropriate next steps and arrange asbestos removal where required.
Licensed asbestos removal and safe disposal in Northwich
Some asbestos removal activities must be undertaken by a contractor holding a licence from the Health and Safety Executive. This includes certain work involving asbestos insulation, asbestos insulation board and sprayed coatings, depending on the material, condition and nature of the work.
Our approach to asbestos removal includes planning the work, assessing the risks, establishing suitable control measures and arranging the appropriate handling and disposal of asbestos waste. We work closely with site managers and contractors to coordinate removal activities around the requirements of each project.
