Asbestos Surveys

Management and pre-refurbishment or pre-demolition asbestos surveys can be carried out by Lucion in all sectors including industrial, commercial, military, educational and domestic premises.

Our team will locate and identify asbestos materials then carry out a full risk assessment as well as asbestos surveys. Following this we can supply quality next-step advice and provide a definitive asbestos record.

Lucion Asbestos Surveys

  • Identify the presence of asbestos
  • Capable of handling large and small sample batches
  • Ensure compliance with health & safety law
  • Email test certification service

Management Surveys

  • Used to be ‘Type 2′ surveys
  • Less intrusive survey to ensure regulatory compliance for property owners

Pre-refurbishment / Demolition Surveys

  • Used to be ‘Type 3′ surveys
  • A more intrusive survey is required to determine all potential asbestos containing materials within a building prior to refurbishment or demolition works to ensure no exposure during refurbishment/demolition work.

Following completion of your survey, you will be provided with a report detailing the location and properties of any asbestos found within the survey. You may then choose whether to encapsulate the asbestos containing material (ACM) or have it removed. If you choose to have it encapsulated, you may require annual reinspection surveys to ensure the ACMs are not damaged. Lucion do not carry out removal works due to the imporance of staying impartial to provide our clients with truly independent advice. However, once you have chosen to have asbestos removed, you can call us back to provide air monitoring services during the removal.

    Lucion Environmental Asbestos Surveys

    You may have the ideal site for development but unfortunately you can’t get going until it has had a thorough environmental check. It can be a logistical and legal minefield without a proper survey.

    For example, did you know that there are 16 species of bat in the UK, each fully protected under EC and UK legislation and planning regulations?

    That’s why you need to talk to experts who can provide the environmental surveys that will green light your brown field development. Our service looks at the following potential problems:

    • We can organise remediation for ground contamination.
    • We also offer soil analysis, where by samples will be sent for analysis in our own laboratory, which allows us to look at any number of samples without incurring extra cost.
    • Lucion hold a comprehensive understanding of different Bat species’ habitats and lifestyle requirements.
    • We will organise compliance with regulations and effective management.
    • If you are concerned about toxic mould, Lucion provides inspection for cause and remediation including condensation or heating programmes, rising damp, leaks and historic water damage.

    • Various sampling techniques will be used to identify both viable and non viable spores. This is dead and alive moulds which are equal health threats. Sampling techniques will identify all types of contamination including the mycotoxins and even old or past water restoration can be checked several years after the believed sanitation.
