London, UK - Asbestos is a known carcinogenic risk factor. Unfortunately, many of London’s older buildings still contain harmful levels of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), which pose significant health risks for building occupants, construction workers, maintenance personnel, and property managers, who may unknowingly disturb these materials during routine activities.
Supernova Asbestos Surveys is a London-based consultancy that offers comprehensive asbestos services, including asbestos management and refurbishment surveys, asbestos testing and reporting, and asbestos removal services. The asbestos testing company also offers fire risk assessments, making it a one-stop provider of property safety and compliance solutions.
Backed by a team of qualified, British Occupational Hygiene Society (BOHS) affiliated technicians, each with over ten years of industrial experience, Supernova Asbestos Surveys is well-positioned to deliver the level of quality London residents expect.
Sharing their experience with the company, a satisfied client noted the team’s professionalism and efficiency:
“We used Supernova for asbestos testing on one of our projects, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The team was professional, responsive, and clearly knowledgeable in their field. Communication was clear throughout the process, and the turnaround time on results was prompt. It was our first time working with them, and we were genuinely impressed by the level of service provided.”
For Asbestos testing, Supernova Asbestos Survey helps to quantify asbestos-containing materials in buildings, including those undergoing renovation, demolition, refurbishment, or maintenance work. Such activities may disturb hidden asbestos materials, causing dangerous fibres to become airborne and posing severe health risks to anyone in or around the property.
Prior to testing, Supernova Asbestos Survey recommends conducting an asbestos survey to help locate potential ACMs. Common sources of ACMs include insulation, roofing sheets, pipe lagging, and certain types of flooring, particularly in properties built before the 2000s.
Supernova Asbestos Surveys offers two asbestos testing protocols: DIY asbestos testing kits and professional on-site asbestos sampling. The DIY kits are readily available online, cost-effective, and allow individuals to conveniently collect samples before forwarding them to analytical laboratories for testing. For more extensive projects requiring multiple sampling, a professional on-site asbestos sample collection is recommended.
The collected samples are then sent to UKAS-accredited (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) laboratories that use a broad range of advanced diagnostic techniques, including scanning and transmission electron microscopy, as well as X-ray diffraction (XRD) to identify and quantify ACMs.
To fast-track the asbestos containment process, Supernova Asbestos Surveys ensures that a comprehensive report is completed within 24 hours. These reports comprise asbestos registers that describe the type of asbestos identified, and an asbestos management plan that details the most appropriate containment measures.
The report also contains sample locations, accompanied by photos that capture rooms and construction details, to help recommend suitable asbestos remedial actions. The team guarantees a 24-hour reporting turnaround time, which is crucial for ensuring safety and effective project planning.
With a commitment to prompt reporting, technical accuracy, and regulatory compliance, Supernova Asbestos Surveys continues to play a vital role in protecting public health and property safety across London.
