Suspect asbestos disturbed?

Stop further disturbance before trying to clean the area

Keep people away where reasonably practicable and do not sweep, dry-dust, drill, cut, scrape or use a domestic vacuum cleaner on suspect asbestos debris. Contact ASM with the site details and explain exactly what has happened so the appropriate next action can be assessed.

Commercial confidentiality is treated as an important project requirement. Asset lists, acquisition targets, controlled locations, client information and commercially sensitive findings can be handled under agreed NDA and project-specific document-control arrangements.

Corporate & national accounts

Multi-site surveys, reinspection programmes, management support, responsive sampling, analytical requirements and remediation coordination.

Major & infrastructure projects

Construction, demolition, industrial, wind, battery-storage, brownfield and other projects requiring coordinated specialist asbestos input.

Acquisition & international work

Does the project require more than asbestos services?

Some projects begin with an asbestos survey but then need removal, scaffolding, roofing, soft strip, demolition, construction, safety systems, solar or energy works. Where appropriate, the wider F&I Group provides access to complementary specialist businesses through one Group environment.

Asbestos

Surveys, testing, monitoring, management, removal and asbestos in soils.

Access & roofing

Scaffolding, temporary access, pitched roofing, flat roofing and associated roof works.

Construction

Soft strip, demolition, refurbishment, structural and associated construction packages.

Energy & safety
