Posted By Andy Dear all, Firstly I hate to ask two questions in one week, but when can we stick to one topic at a time..... So apologies in advance. Can anyone recccomend an asbestos surveying company. I need to raise a register and comply with the upcoming new duties. If anyone can help I would be very gratefull, I would rather avoid the pitfalls of opening the yellow pages. Kind of like paying £4000 for removing an old garage, did anyone see Life of Grime? Local company told me that they would have quoted a quarter of that for the same task! Many thanks in advance Andrew Powell

Posted By Andy Sorry - again, North west area. Thanks Nick

Posted By Charles New Whilst I cannot recommend a company in your area you could start by logging on to the UKAS web site and serch for labs/companies accredited for asbestos bulk sampling and identification. The web site provides addresses and contact numbers etc. Be sure to distinguish between the accreditation given for the sampling of bulk asbestos and that given for the identification of asbestos in bulk materials. I hope this helps.

Posted By Uday I would be grateful, if readers of this forum suggest and / or advise me as to whether or not we can = USE ASBESTOS FIRE blanket = for fire protection in the kitchen where cooking activity for 900 + employees are being carried out.
