There are several steps involved in identifying and removing asbestos, and there are strict legal requirements to ensure that it is done safely and correctly. OHSS offers all asbestos related services, so we can meet all of your needs when it comes to safely identifying and managing the removal of asbestos.
Asbestos Surveys
Before any work can begin on an asbestos containing premises, an asbestos survey must be carried out. This survey will identify asbestos containing materials, document their condition and location, and whether they should be removed or managed. OHSS is accredited to carry out these surveys.
Asbestos Removal
If it's determined that the asbestos must be removed, the work must be carried out by certified professionals. Asbestos presents a serious health hazard, and it should only be removed by competent professional to ensure the health and safety of everyone involved.
Clearance
Once the asbestos has been removed, the air must be tested to ensure that asbestos particles are not in the air before re-entry is permitted. OHSS is certified to perform clearance testing, and this certification is recognised worldwide.

We offer all of the services you need to manage or remove any asbestos found on your premises. We will work with you to create a detailed plan for asbestos removal or management before work begins.
