The scope of asbestos testing
It’s worth knowing what asbestos testing does and does not cover:
- Photos can’t confirm asbestos; only a lab can
- If the material is in a hard-to-reach place, access may need planning
- Clearance testing is a separate, independent job
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
